Product Information
This book, accompanying an exhibition at the Asia Society in New York, is a study by an international team of contributors who analyze recently excavated objects, including beautiful Buddhist sculptures, Byzantine coins and silver Sasanian bowls, to enable historians, students of Chinese history and culture, and archaeologists, as well as collectors of Asian art, to understand the cross-cultural influences that took place in Central Asia before China closed its doors to the West during the Tang dynasty.Product Identifiers
