THE ORIENTAL WORLD

Jeannine Auboyer, Roger Goepper, Hamlyn Landmarks of the World’s Art Series 1967.

The art of the Orient has a particular fascination for readers in the West. It is remote and exotic. It is often mystifying: But it possesses a grace and beauty that are irresistible. This book covers an immense area: India (with her cultural empire in South-East Asia), China, Korea, and Japan. It is illustrated with over two hundred plates, more than half of which are in magnificent colour.

Both the book and the dust jacket are in very good condition and the decorative endpapers are maps of India and South-East Asia and China, Korea and Japan, respectively. As the book is heavy parcel or surface mail might be required.
