Rock Art Made In Translation: Framing Images From And Of The Landscape

Synopsis

Featuring rock art reproductions made by the great German ethnologist Leo Frobenius on his visits to South Africa and Zimbabwe in the 1930s, this collection offers a fascinating look into the past. Depicting these beautiful museum pieces—some measuring several meters in length—this record also considers the problem of copying and, consequently, the implications of understanding the original. Published to coincide with the first display of these copies, after more than 70 years of neglect, in the South African Museum, this book will certainly engage those interested in the prehistoric roots of art.
