Book Description
"From Tutankhamen to Troy, from the treasury of Saint Mark's to that of the Medici, from the diamonds of the Czars to the jewels of Maharajahs, this fascinating book brings together for the first time an exceptional overview of the goldsmith's art over the millennia. The protagonists of the volume are some of the most celebrated and fabulous treasures from throughout the world; the gold of the temples of antiquity; the collections of precious objects buried as funerary caches; the sacred splendor of the gems conserved in the medieval cathedrals; the princely collections of marvels from the modern age; and the royal insignia and the fabulous jewels of the ruling houses of Europe, Asia and the Americas. This book reveals how in all ages and all cultures gold is the undisputed prince of metals, the only material capable of clearly expressing the ineffable, the absolute and the concept of incorruptibility, a concept seized upon by potentates the world over to illuminate their sacred power."--BOOK JACKET.
