HAWAI'I. The Royal Isles

More than 300 rare objects from the Bishop Museum's unsurpassed collection of Hawaiian art began a two-year tour of American museums in the fall of 1980. A large number of the spectacular wooden and stone images (including both ceremonial and utilitarian objects) and the famed feather capes worn by Hawaiian kings had never before left the Islands and have seldom been exhibited. This catalogue accompanied the exhibit and contains great photographs and an equally fine text.
