The Museum Rietberg in Zurich possesses an old and important collection of Southeast Asian sculpture, but until now it has never been fully documented and analysed. It includes stone statues from the Cham culture of Vietnam, examples of which can otherwise only be seen in the Cham Museum in Da Nang and the Musée Guimet in Paris; sculptures of the Khmer from Cambodia which are among the earliest artefacts of this culture collected in Europe; and statues from Thailand and Indonesia.
The works brought together in this publication give an excellent introduction to the fascinating world of Southeast Asian art. Lucid and engaging, the book is filled with photographs of the artworks, and also includes some rare historical photographs which among other things show two of the sculptures in their original locations.
