From an African mask to a Maya temple to a watercolor by the great
Indian poet and artist Tagore, this richly illustrated book presents
the vast and fascinating range of arts that lies outside the Western
tradition.
Michael Kampen O'Riley treats Asian, African, and American cultures
from their early, often prehistoric beginnings through the present
day, explaining what makes each distinctive. The only one-volume
overview of the subject available today, this solid, cogent work is an
ideal introduction for students, art lovers, and travelers.
