![]() No current Talk conversations about this book. ![]() SUMER: THE DAWN OF ART opens with an intriguing 20 page Introduction by Andre' Malraux. Andre Parrot continues with smooth and gently revealing, fascinating and entertaining descriptions of the artistry and history of Mesopotamia and its environs. He illuminates the interweaving of the artists sacred visions with art and architecture through nearly three millennia. Though many excavations have updated information since SUMER was published in 1961, this presentation of astonishing art transcending life into fantasy and the conclusions Parrot offered remain profound...and revelatory, as readers see the Dawn of American Southwestern Native American Pottery at Susa! no reviews | add a review
