Item Description – Robes of Splendor: Native North American Painted Buffalo Hides; with contributions by George P. Horse Capture, Anne Vitart, Michael Waldberg, and W. Richard West, Jr.; photographs of the Hides by Daniel Ponsard; The New Press, New York, 1993. First U. S. printing. Originally published as Parures d’histoire, 1993 by Reunion des Musees Nationaux, Paris and Musee de l’Homme, Paris. From the blurb – This is the first U. S. publication of an extraordinary collection of native American art, unknown to contemporary American audiences. For centuries, ornamental robes made of buffalo hide were painted by artists of the various Indian nations, brought back to the French kings in the eighteenth century, the robes represented here are now housed in the Musée de l'Homme in Paris, and together they make a stunning tribute to a bygone art form. These robes, spectacularly executed and perfectly conserved, offer an incomparable pictographic representation of early native American life. With introductory and historical essays by three leading experts on native American art, a preface by W. Richard West, Jr., the director of the National Museum of the American Indian, and over a hundred photographs of the hides, this splendid volume is sure to be a treasure in any collection. This large format book, 144 pages measuring 238mm X 220mm is in fine condition in a fine dust jacket that is now in a protective mylar wrap. This large volume may require additional postage.…
