Review
Beautifully produced in a slipcase by Textile & Art Publications in London, this large volume is is divided into five sections: magic, mystery and marvellous reality in pre-Hispanic Peru; life in ancient Peru; the creation of featherwork; imagery and iconography in Peruvian featherwork; the role, uses and symbolism of featherwork; ancient Peruvian featherwork and modern art. It is superbly illustrated throughout with full-page reproductions as well as numerous smaller images breaking up the text. This is an authoritative and splendid work. - review by Johnny de Falbe
