Zitat

"[The book is] far more than the usual sumptuously produced exhibition catalogue it represents an important collection of cutting-edge scholarship located at the intersection of African art history, history and anthropology. This book is a landmark in the history of African visual and material culture." -John Parker, "Bulletin of the School of Oriental and African Studies"
