{"product_id":"new-guinea-highlands-john-friede-9783791350554","title":"New Guinea Highlands: Art from the Jolika Collection","description":"The first major publication on the art of the New Guinea Highlands, this extraordinary volume is destined to become the definitive resource on this little-known region. The Jolika Collection of New Guinea Art at the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco consists of hundreds of objects and represents hundreds of clans and villages throughout the island of New Guinea. This lavishly illustrated volume focuses on the Highlands--a region of rugged mountains, fertile valleys, and a civilization that dates back fifty thousand years. Here, in more than six hundred pages, are intricately crafted shields, masks, and headdresses, along with other remarkable ceremonial and personal objects--the majority of which have never before been published or exhibited. Historic and field photographs, maps of key locations, and authoritative essays by preeminent scholars covering a wide range of subjects, from prehistoric carvings to body adornment, make this book a collector's dream.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Friede, Terence Hays, Christina Hellmich\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3791350552\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783791350554\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Prestel Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/12\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 688\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 12.30h x 9.50w x 2.40d","brand":"John Friede","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44075209687295,"sku":"9783791350554","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_87961a5b-3e9f-4326-9541-7d2161f6d045.jpg?v=1685458236","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/new-guinea-highlands-john-friede-9783791350554","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
