A beautifully illustrated history of folk art in Romania found various forms such as architecture, fabric, earthenware and furniture. Complete with illustrations, black and white photography and text to guide you through the country and its cultural elements as a whole.
This particular edition here was published in 1955 by The Rumanian Institute For Cultural Relations With Foreign Countries. It is in hardback format, complete with original dust jacket which, as shown in the photos, does show signs of damage to the front and spine with some tears present. There is an owners mark to the top inside of the front endpaper, otherwise however no further annotations. The pages are in good condition however in the earlier part of the book some foxing in the pages as shown.
Overall a treasure in a culture not often celebrated enough and created with a love for crafts which have long been seen everyday.
