Book excerpt: Nomadic, virtually forgotten tribes once flourished in the vast Central Asian plains stretching from the Black Sea to the Himalayas. Here, surrounded by three imposing civilizations of antiquity -- the Mediterranean world, India, and the Far East -- they created a distinctive art that is often the only remaining evidence of their existence. Tamara Talbot Rice has undertaken a careful regional and chronological survey of the artistic accomplishments of these Central Asian peoples. Beginning with prehistoric days and ending with the centuries that paralleled Europe's dark ages, Tamara Talbot Rice traces the development of their painting, sculpture, pottery, textiles, and architecture, distinguishing between the distinctive contributions of the Central Asians and their debt to the art of other civilizations. Mrs. Talbot Rice examines the Central Asian artistic legacy. In so doing, she provides a brilliant analysis of the art that evolved in that part of the world where Buddhist, Christian, and Moslem tradition converge. -- From publisher's description.

Download or read book Treasures from the Oxus written by Massimo Vidale and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-06-21 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In history, this grand arterial 1500-mile waterway was always seen as the natural frontier between the northern provinces of the Iranian empires and the outer Turanian lands. It was for centuries central to Achaemenid and later Persian power. But, as the author shows, it has a prehistory which goes very much further back: and a succession of skilled yet still elusive Bronze Age cultures flourished here well before the rise of Cyrus the Great in the 6th century BCE. This richly illustrated book explores the fascinating history, art and archaeology of the region, including its primal trade in silk and foodstuffs; the mineral wealth of the Oxus basin; its exotic myths and beliefs; and the converging tribes and peoples which led to a new stability, economic growth and urbanism. The volume contains 150 full-colour photographs of notable artefacts, including silver decorated vessels, inlaid stone pots, agate beads and 25 'Bactrian Princesses': remarkable statuettes made in chlorite and limestone. Most of these rare objects have never been seen, let alone published, before.
