by Frits A. WagnerNot on Booklabria yet
Frits A. Wagner of the Royal Institute for the Tropics, Amsterdam, here gives a clear and profound picture of an art that is highly diversified. His book is one of the first to study as an entity the many islands which lie between India and China. "Indonesia" traces step by step the historical development of the art of the islands and shows how it reflects the influences of the numerous Indian and Chinese groups that traded with the islands as well as the impact of religion: Hinduism, Buddhism and ultimately that of Islam. Almost a hundred illustrations, including 64 in full color, illustrate the sculpture, painting, metalwork, architecture, bronzes, ceramics, and textiles discussed in the text.
