Title: Ethnos
Description: Ethnos is the evocative title of the first general catalogue dedicated to the vast and complex Ethnological Collections of the Vatican Museums. The new text to be published by Edizioni Musei Vaticani is enriched with an extensive iconographical guide, and presents as the true protagonists of the collections not the objects themselves, but rather the peoples of whom these works are an authentic cultural expression.-- Museums website.
