Sculptures Khmères

Marchal, Henri, Miestchaninoff, Oscar, 1886-1956 · 1907 · Paris : Librairie de France · 33 pictures

Sculptures Khmères is a 1907 Paris art book by Henri Marchal and Oscar Miestchaninoff, presenting Khmer stone sculpture through photographic plates for art historians and collectors. Its four pictures show carved stone heads photographed against plain grounds, with elaborate crowns and calm, half-closed faces that suggest a designer could borrow stylised ornament, sacred serenity and weathered stone texture.
