"The Seasons Observed is a photographic portrait of the natural landscape, documented in such diverse settings as Aspen, the Hudson River and its environs, California, Florida, Hawaii, the Caribbean, Bali, Indonesia, South America, and that perennial pleasure spot, Italy. Turning her camera away from people and signs of cultural life, Evelyn Lauder has taken careful aim to celebrate nature season by season. A grove of birch trees whose trunks cast long, lean shadows in the grass, a swarm of golden leaves buzzing in the fall sunlight, an eddy of water cutting through a snowcovered bank are among the seventy-six color photographs in this quietly moving, spiritual book."--BOOK JACKET * Hardcover.

Part of the reason is location, for New Guinea is a remote island the size of France and Italy combined, just east of Indonesia and hovering above Australia in the South Pacific. [.] The appeal of New Guinea art lies in its extraordinary resourcefulness and creativity. For centuries, the people there have made objects in order to communicate and interact with the spirit world. Many of the objects, based on myths and ancient religious themes, are the equal of many of the world's great sculptural masterpieces. Some were made in response to health, or fertility, or rites of passage; others signified an individual's stature in a village; and others invoked the end of a mourning ritual, or warded off evil and sickness. [.] The art of New Guinea can be seen in its fullest and richest depiction ever in this elegantly presented two-volume publication. More than 600 masterworks come from Marcia and John Friede, who have devoted decades to the study and pursuit of these works. {.]" CONDITION: Both volumes are fine in fine dust jackets. The slipcase is near fine with some rubbing and scratching at the bottom, along with a minor corner bump at the head at the back. A very, very nice set, worthy as a gift to any art collector, connoisseur or travel enthusiast.
