Ivoires De La Renaissance Et Des Temps Modernes La Collection Du Musée Du Louvre

Through more than three hundred objects, some of which shown for the first time, this book offers a history of European ivory through the collection of the Louvre Museum. The pieces studied are very varied, and also include objects from Ceylon, Japan, Africa and Mexico.

This collection is published for the first time in its entirety in a fully illustrated catalogue. Abundant appendices contribute to making this work a reference in French on the subject.
