Moche fineline painting : its evolution and its artists

This volume traces the fineline painting tradition of the ancient Moche civilisation of Peru. In the absence of a writing system, these detailed ceramic illustrations provide a rich record of the culture's daily activities, beliefs, and societal structure.
