In the 1960s, art patron Dominique de Menil founded an image
archive showing the ways that people of African descent have been
represented in Western art. Highlights from her collection appeared
in three large-format volumes that quickly became collector's
items. A half-century later, Harvard University Press and the Du
Bois Institute are proud to publish a complete set of ten sumptuous
books, including new editions of the original volumes and two
additional ones. Europe and the World Beyond focuses geographically
on peoples of South America and the Mediterranean as well as
Africa-but conceptually it emphasizes the many ways that visual
constructions of blacks mediated between Europe and a faraway
African continent that was impinging ever more closely on daily
life, especially in cities and ports engaged in slave trade.
