4.0 out of 5 stars
a beautiful catalogue,
By K. Maxwell "katmax1" (Sydney, Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Orientalism: Visions of the East in Western Dress (Paperback)
This book was produced for an exhibition at the metropolitan musuem of art in 1994. It shows how visions of 'the exotic' in places like asia and the middle east have affected western dress over the centuries - right up to the present time.This volume is illustrated with numerous lovley colour photos of the exhibition pieces, which range from the 18th to 20th centuries. The text is quite light and easy to read, and the book does not have an index. I give this book 4 stars for the photo and presentation content, but I'd have to drop one off for the text content. It's not a big book at 95 pages, but it's a nice one:) |
