Art from the orient : a selection from the collections of H. Kevorkian
This is a 1922 sale catalogue from the Anderson Galleries in New York, presenting Asian art drawn from the collection of H. Kevorkian for prospective buyers and collectors. The pictures are plain black-and-white photographs, one per plate, of a standing bronze figure with a stand, a tall gilt-dark Buddhist-style statue, and two dark figurative textiles with horsemen, hunters and stylised scenes. A designer could take from them the strong silhouettes of the statues and the dense, layered patterning of the embroidered hangings.
