No defects noted and the interior text and illustration pages are flawless. Included are nine pages of the art history of New Mexico and 22 pages for the eleven plates for the Santos and their descriptions. It has been said that the entire production of New Mexican art was the work of perhaps a dozen men. Their fewness was recently confirmed by careful statistical studies established the stylistic identities of twelve painters since 1750 and ten carvers. In New Mexico the rarity of innovation and the close adherence to traditional formulas seem to speak a small amount. New Mexico after 1750 and until about 1900 was not only the end of the geographic line but it was also the recipients of the traditions of Christian imagery. It marked the end of a world of religious expression that opened with the Middle Ages more than a 1000 years ago. In the 20th century another art has taken form to clothe the old meanings of Christianity, and it likely that the Santeros of New Mexico were the last exponents of the prior tradition. The Santos of New Mexico are unmistakable. No one who has looked at them attentively will confuse them with any other rural Latin American or European expression.. First Edition. Trade Paperback.

ABOUT THE BOOK:- From the earliest times Eastern races, in common with the rest of mankind, have always held a firm belief in the existence of evil spirits, ghosts, and all kindred powers. The phenomena of death, the mysteries of disease and sickness, and all the other events of common occurrence in daily life gave rise to speculations about the unseen world, which gradually led to a distinction, although slight at all times, between good evil spirits. The early Semitic people of Babylonia, who ever they may have been or wherever they may have migrated from, found a theology ready to their hands in their adopted country, which they took over from its primitive inhabitants the Sumerians doubtless grafting to it many of the beliefs of their forefathers. The primitive Sumerian recognised three distinct classes of evil spirit, namely, first came the disembodied human soul which could find no rest and so wandered up and down the face of the earth, secondly, the gruesome spirits which were half human and half demon, and thirdly, the friends and devils who were of the same nature as the gods. Who rode on the noxious winds, or brought storms and pestilence. ABOUT THE AUTHOR:- R. Campbell Thompson, (1876-1941) was a British archaeologist, assyriologist, and cuneiformist. He excavated at Nineveh, Ur, Nebo, and Charchemish among many other sites. He was born in Kensington, and educated at colet Court, St. Paul school and Caius College, Cambridge, where he read oriental (Hebrew and Aramic) Languages. In 1918 Mesopotamia fell into British hands, and the trustees of the British Museum applied to have an archaeologist attached to the army in the field to protect antiquities from injury. As a captain in the Intelligence Service serving in the region and a former assistant in the British Museum R.C. Thompson was commissioned to start the work. After a short investigation of Ur, he dug at Shahrain and the mounds at Tell- al- Laham. After the First World War he held a fellowship at Merton College, Oxford.
