Editorial Reviews:
Synopsis:

The accompanying essays explore the rich historical background and examine the ways in which the various forms of art were used--both in a spiritual context and in communicating to the nomadic people a message of harmony and unity, the promise of utopian future.


Review:

"...celebrates the Mongolian renaissance from the late 17th to the early 20th century...The seminal figure in Mongol art is Zanabazar (1635-1723), who seems to have trained in Tibet and whose elegantly gilt bronze sculptures are rare even in his homeland; the book contains several photographs of work attributed to him or his school."

DD, Washington Post Book World, 12/10/1995
