Description
 
In this 2 volume set, each Pantheon, or collection of icons, is presented in photo-reproductions from the priceless originals, with descriptive indexes in Chinese, Tibetan, and Sanskrit. Each is a treasure-house of symbolic suggestiveness, profoundly spiritual. The Pao-hsiang Lou Pantheon, reproduced here for the first time in the Western world consists of 766 bronze sculptures on pedestals from the Forbidden City in Peiping, most of them inscribed with the names of divinities or high personages. This reprint of the 1937 classic contains numerous plates.
