Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Print on Demand. This book provides an up-to-date overview of the history of Hawaiian featherwork, an art form almost lost in the face of foreign influence and environmental challenges. Originally a symbol of rank and social importance for a Hawaiian, the cultural significance of featherwork is thoroughly examined through the book's exploration of the tools, materials, techniques, designs, and preservation of Hawaiian featherwork. Richly illustrated with historical and modern images, the book presents a sombering tale of decline and destruction, while also offering hope for its resurgence. The book surveys and explains the author's own research and travels, and includes over a hundred illustrations depicting the stunning diversity of featherwork. It also addresses the future, with chapters on the conservation and restoration of feather artifacts, and the revival of the art form. Hawaiian featherwork is here presented as a unique and fascinating craft, and the passionate, painstaking work of the author ensures this ancient art form will be preserved for the general public, as well as scholars of history, art, and anthropology for years to come. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
