About this product

Product Information

Treasures of the Andes is a beautiful showcase of the superb legacy of the ancient peoples of South America. It features the wonderfully imaginative tradition of craftmanship in precious metals, as well as beautiful textiles, embroidery, ceramics and architecture. Accompanying this is a detailed commentary explaining the symbols depicted, and the beliefs that lay behind them. Highlights include Machu Picchu and the Nazca Lines. A vivid and richly illustrated portrait of the rise and fall of the mountain and coastal peoples of this region, Treasures of the Andes sets the riches of South America in their historical and regional context and restores an important missing piece in the jigsaw of the world's great civilizations.
