Sobre este artículo
London: Laurence King Publishing, 1997. First Edition, First Printing. Fine Hardcover in a Fine Dust Jacket. New/New.
No Flaws or Blemishes; Gift Quality. Oblong, 12.5 by 10 inches; 175 pages with an index, 152 illustrations, 140 in color.. This work concentrates exclusively on the elaborately embroidered textiles from the Ica and Nasca valley regions in south-coastal Peru. Focusing on the supernatural figures depicted in these vividly coloured textiles, it brings together textiles, ceramics and gold from museums and private collections around the world to document the techniques and style of Nasca needlework.
It also suggests that the more widely-known Paracas needlework may have been influenced by that of the early Nasca culture.
Background Information:
The Nazca culture (also Nasca) was the archaeological culture that flourished from c. 100 BC to 800 AD beside the arid, southern coast of Peru in the river valleys of the Rio Grande de Nazca drainage and the Ica Valley. Strongly influenced by the preceding Paracas culture, which was known for extremely complex textiles, the Nazca produced an array of crafts and technologies such as ceramics, textiles, and geoglyphs.
