This unusual and stimulated book contains 766 primitive designs of interest to artist, commercial designers, hobbyists, and handicraft workers. They are vigorous and barbaric motifs which will add color and strong rhythmic lines to textile work, leathercraft, wood and metalwork, advertising art and other areas where novel decorative ideas are at a premium.
Plumed serpents, calendrical elements, wind gods, insects, toads and lizards, real and mythological birds, flowers, demons and monsters, fish, monkeys, deer, the human head and figure, hundreds of abstract ornamental designs and many other subjects are included -- all derived from carved stamps made by Aztec, Maya, Totonac, Zapotec, Olmec, Toltec and other cultures.
