[From back cover] AN INTRODUCTION TO THE THAI MURAL by K.I. Matics reflects intricate beliefs and traditions passed down through generations. The murals of Thailand provide historical insight into the lives and legends of the great and the common. Although Thai murals have been the subject of a few other studies in Western languages, it is rare, indeed, that one encounters a study that reveals the rich cultural and historical tapestry interwoven throughout the art of Buddhist temples in Thailand. Dr. Matics' study guides the reader through the complexities of Thai artistry, providing vivid descriptions of styles, techniques, origins, themes and mediums.
