Description: Mimbres Painted Pottery by J. J. Brody. School of American Research, Santa Fe/University of New Mexico Press, Albuquerque, 1987 (second impression). Large format, lavishly illustrated 253 page trade paperback in pristine condition with no interior markings or other visible flaws. Dr. J. J. Brody incorporates the extensive fieldwork done on Mimbres sites since the original publication in 1977, updating his discussion of village life, the larger world in which the Mimbres people lived, and how the art that they practiced illuminates these wider issues. He addresses human and animal iconography, the importance of perspective and motion in perceiving Mimbres artistry, and the technology used to produce the ceramics. Placing the study of ancient art and artifacts in the present, he notes the impact of the antiquities market on archaeological and artistic research. This work will interest archaeologists, art historians, and all people who enjoy the beauty, humor, and humanity of Mimbres pottery. It features over one hundred new illustrations and insights drawn from a lifetime of study and contemplation. $5.95 domestic U.S. shipping. Payment must be received within 24 hours of sale.
