Description

"Blending a multiplicity of cultural influences with their own artistic genius, the Thais have created some of the world's finest art. In this definitive introduction to Thai art, author Steve Van Beek takes a wide-ranging look at how these diverse forces were fused into a wealth of art forms which are uniquely Thai. As a means to a fuller understanding of Thai culture, he explores the symbolism of architecture, sculpture, and painting. The Arts of Thailand also covers contemporary art and the minor arts."--BOOK JACKET.
