According to the information from TMA/SC’s Cheri Hunter this presentation will examine several Turkmen motifs in detail. It will discuss their various sources, the transformations they have undergone, and in some cases their remarkable antiquity. It will also emphasize some of the pitfalls in this kind of art historical enquiry.
