Pou Hakanononga. A Statue from Easter Island. - Nicolas Cauwe.
A Statue from Easter Island
KORTE INHOUD
In 1934-1935, a major ethnographic and archaeological expedition to Rapa Nui (Easter Island) was organised by the Musée de l'Homme in Paris and the Royal Museums of Art and History in Brussels. In addition to the important scientific data recorded, the mission also led to the donation to Belgium of a statue (moai) called Pou Hakanononga, which is now known to be one of the oldest produced on the island. This book tells the story of this astonishing statue, which has been on display at the Royal Museums of Art and History in Brussels since 1935, and is the first in a new series "PLUS - Masterpieces of the Royal Museums of Art and History".
