Looking
at how artists from all over the world have modeled the human form
in ceramics, this book provides lavish full-color illustrations and
examples from pre-historic times to the present, along with the historical,
mythological, and methodological background to this fascinating subject.
Stunningly beautiful pottery that have enhanced the domestic rituals
