This very popular work brings together the first research done on these incredibly artistic pre-historic Indians.
Dr J. J. Brody's Introduction provides an insightful and concise overview of these Indians and their phenomenal
black-on-white pottery and its representational imagery.
The book reproduces more than 300 illustrations from
the Mimbres collections at the Smithsonian Insitute. Original research and writings done between 1914 and 1924
by noted ethnographer, J. W. Fewkes. The Mimbres lived in Southwestern New Mexico and produced some of the most striking art of the ancient Southwest.
This book is a must for artists and collectors.
