DescriptionLarousse Encyclopedia of Prehistoric and Ancient Art Prometheus Press | 1962 | ISBN: N/A | English | 456 pages | PDF | 78.6 MB Spanning a period of tens of thousands of years, this magnificently illustrated volume traces in detail the development of art in every corner of the globe — rediscovering the art objects of paleolithic times, relating them to the artifacts of the dim ages of protohistory and the art of living primitive societies, and examining their evolution into the monumental treasures of Classical and Oriental antiquity. Scrupulously edited by a noted art historian and reproducing art treasures from the world's greatest museums, this volume encompasses the entire range of man's activities as reflected in his artistic creations — religion and myth, culture and philosophy, esthetics and civilization. Indeed, it is an epic account of the first long, eventful stage in the development of mankind. Sharing Widget |
