Cambridge: Harvard Art Museum 2018. Hardcover. New in shrinkwrap. Gray cloth boards with inlaid color illustration and stamped lettering in white and gray. 402 pp. Illustrations maps. Vessels shaped as bulls lions birds donkeys and other animals were routinely used to pour and drink liquids at feasts throughout the ancient world. Bringing together animal-shaped vessels from Asia the Mediterranean the Near and Far East and the Americas this fascinating cross-cultural study is the first large-scale consideration of this phenomenon. Experts from around the world reveal how these entertaining often extremely lifelike vessels functioned not only as feasting paraphernalia but also as ritual implements symbols of social status and objects of artistic exchange and experimentation. Taking up questions ranging from the mechanics of drinking from such unwieldy containers to considerations of what the preference for these shapes says about the nature of human-animal relationships this books uses a comprehensive and multidisciplinary approach to offer a unique window onto the experiences of the individuals and communities who raised up these magnificent objects in pleasure and in praise.
