Full description for Early Sino-Tibetan Art
This is a study of the artistic dialogue between the two great north Asian cultural centres of Tibet and China, commencing as early as the 9th century, through to the 15th century. This groundbreaking monograph is well illustrated with many objects which are otherwise inaccessible and bases its findings on translations of indigenous Tibetan, Chinese and Central Asian inscriptions.With a new foreword by the author, many new colour illustrations and an extensive bibliography of Western language, Tibetan, Chinese and Japanese sources, it is both a scholarly and attractive addition to the growing body of literature on Tibetan art.It is long out of print and much sought after work on the early artistic relationship between Tibet and China. The author's philogical skills have given this study a broad and deep perspective, which should ensure its continuing importance as a key text in this field.
