AYMARA WEAVINGS, Ceremonial Textiles of Colonial and 19th Century Bolivia

Adelson, L., A. Tracht

Washington, D.C. 1983. 159 pages, 101 photographs, 1 map. 1 chart. Item #13559

This history of the weaving tradition of the Aymara Indians of Bolivia was published to accompany a traveling exhibition of some of the finest--and most beautiful--of these textiles. Never before had such a rare and comprehensive collection--ponchos, tunics, skirts, mantles, coca bags, coca cloth and belts--been assembled, and it is documented in color photographs as good as we have seen.
