Christian and Oriental Philosophy of Art

Meer over het boek

Ananda K. Coomaraswamy's work showcases his unparalleled expertise in Oriental art, philosophy, and traditional culture. As a curator at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, he authored influential monographs that transformed the understanding of Eastern arts and crafts. His insights spanned the philosophical and religious experiences of both the East and West, viewing primitive, medieval European, and classical Indian perspectives on truth and art as interconnected expressions within a shared dialect.
