The majority of the stunningly sophisticated bronze, jade, and clay works of art featured in this book—among the most unusual and spectacular produced anywhere in the ancient world—come from a startling archaeological discovery made in China in the late 1980's at the previously unknown site of Sanxingdui in Sichuan province. Remarkably varied, these striking objects include a monumental standing figure, masks and heads of fantastic supernatural beings, finely honed jade blades, ritual vessels, marvelous clay statuettes, and an almost life-sized bronze horse. This publication represents a unique international effort to continue the study of ancient Sichuan.

360 pages, 250 color illustrations, 22 halftones, 237 line illustrations, 9 3/4 in. x 12 in. Cloth.
