Before the publication of his articles and books on comparative art, archaeologists, ethnologists, and art critics largely avoided dealing with primitive art. The word \"art\" was almost taboo in ethnological museums, and works of primitive arts were only sporadically admitted to art galleries. It was only after the publication of Balch's book \u003cem\u003eComparative Art\u003c\/em\u003e that the doors of recognition began to open for art critics and ethnologists alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe author's aim has been to examine and compare as many art specimens from as many places as possible to determine whether art is one unified whole or a collection of diverse arts. He traces resemblances and differences between the arts of various global regions and seeks to formulate the most accurate deductions about art and humanity. In certain respects, this work is a study of the fine arts across the world, and in others, it is an attempt to trace the story of mankind as revealed through the fine arts.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cosmo Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49768389673264,"sku":"DRG.CosmoPub_9788130716992","price":1040.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/cosmo-publications-book-default-title-art-and-man-40756506820912.webp?v=1775978703","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/products\/art-and-man","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
