Gods of Angkor

July 15, 2010 ⋅ post a comment

The Wall Street Journal’s Lee Lawrence writes “The very name “Angkor” conjures images of towering stone spires, rocks morphing into giant undulating snakes, carved faces bulging from temple walls. But these palaces and temples housed bronzes—idols, ritual objects and decorative statues that took their place within the endless unfolding of stone reliefs and statuary.”
