Louis Perrois' major work analyzing 272 Fang reliquary figures was a massive undertaking and resulted in almost universal agreement that this was one of the most important volumes to have been published on African art. Extensive data are provided for each of the 272 figures--which were drawn from European and U.S. museum and private collections--as are multiple illustrations for each figure. The text is in French.
