Profusely illustrated
$650.00
L'Argenterie Peruvienne a l'Epoque Coloniale by Raoul d'Harcourt, published by Editions Albert Morance in Paris in 1925, is a profusely illustrated study of Peruvian silver production during the colonial period, one of the foundational French-language references on the subject. D'Harcourt was among the foremost European scholars of Pre-Columbian and colonial South American material culture in the early twentieth century, and this volume reflects the high standard of illustrated art historical publishing associated with Morance in the interwar period. The decorative cover design, incorporating Andean motifs, is itself a document of the period's engagement with Pre-Columbian visual culture.
