This carefully researched, beautifully illustrated work was the first to consider this art in depth as a meaningful aesthetic-spiritual expression. It is reissued for today's readers, with a new preface outlining changes in the field since the book appeared in 1966.EAN: 9780819560407Package Dimensions: 9.9 x 7.8 x 1.2 inchesLanguages: English
