Sobre este artículo
Translation by Merrily P. Hansen of "Costumes et parures khmèrs d'après les devatâ d'Angkor-Vat" (Librairie Nationale d'Art et d'Histoire, 1927). Volume, measuring approximately 6.25" x 8.75", is bound in original printed and illustrated wrappers. Book is like new. xii/99 pages.
"Author and artist Sappho Marchal was the daughter of the renowned French conservator of Angkor, Henri Marchal. She spent her early years in Cambodia surrounded by the magnificent monuments of the Khmers and produced the present study in 1927 at the age of 23. Her annotated line drawings capture the beauty and intricate detail of Khmer costumes and ornaments depicted on the apsara reliefs of Angkor Wat with even more clarity than film. This documentation is all the more valuable since many of these reliefs have severely deteriorated or disappeared. This first English edition of Marchal's work will serve as an essential record and guide for present-day visitors to the monument."
