Deborah Daughtry (ridgewood, nj USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Image of the Black in Western Art, Volume I: From the Pharaohs to the Fall of the Roman Empire (Menil Foundation Series) (Hardcover)

If you are seeking visually glorious evidence of the beauty of the people from Africa, look no further. While I take exception to the sometimes euro-centric narratives, the art work featured in this series speaks for itself!
