DOWNLOAD EBOOKCelebrating African costumes and textiles, this volume draws on historical and modern pieces from the Zaira and Marcel Mis Collection. The extraordinary works presented exemplify the craftsmanship of highly skilled African weavers and provide insight into the lives and culture of various ethnic groups. Whether the materials used are wool, cotton, silk, raffia, or bark, the patterns the weavers produce are predominantly geometric and abstract, but highly stylized figurative motifs are also found. The designs frequently illustrate excerpts from historical or mythical stories. The book presents a breathtaking variety of costumes, textiles, and accessories used for everyday wear and for special celebrations, and explores the different techniques, influences, and meanings behind these colorful works of art. The essays describe the history of the development of these techniques and the richness of the symbolism in this form of cultural heritage. The superb photography showcases the splendor of these intricate and exquisite textiles.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAt the peak of its perfection in the fifth century B.C., the glory of classical Greek drama was matched by the magnificence of its costumes. Iris Brooke, the author of many lively books on fashion, describes how performers were dressed in plays by Aeschylus, Sophocles and Euripides, and explains how the actors' need for effective movement and performance influenced the cut of their costumes. Topics cover textiles and civil attire, armor, insignia of gods and goddesses, jewelry, masks, headdresses, and garments worn by the chorus.
