Accompanied by detailed photographs and explanatory texts, this ground-breaking book proposes a new way of looking at Burmese silver. Names, dates, places, and stories identifying the who, when, where, and what of Burmese silver has been the focus of publications on the topic. Are these questions the best way to understand silver, however Alexandra Green argues that they are not. Too few pieces provide reliable information about silversmiths, production locations, and dates to allow for a comprehensive understanding of the subject. Instead, a close examination of silver patterns reveals strong links with Burmese art history reaching as far back as the Bagan period (11th to 13th centuries), connections with contemporary artistic trends, and participation within the wider world of silversmithing."-- $c Publisher's description. 650 0 $a Silverwork $z Burma $v Catalogs. 650 7 $a Silverwork. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01119016 651 7 $a Burma. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01207835 655 7 $a Catalogs. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423692 655 7 $a Catalogs. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117022321.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8B6A0B32664511EDB99D19AA23ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
