Certain archaeological investigations in Trinidad, British West Indies
An archaeological report by Theodoor de Booy, published in New York in 1918 by the Museum of the American Indian, Heye Foundation, for scholars of Indigenous West Indian peoples. The photographs show ceramic vessel fragments and sculpted pieces from Trinidad, shot in plain grey halftone against a cream background. A designer might take their worn, cracked surfaces and bold, simple painted bands and curves as raw material for vintage pottery or ancient-artifact patterns.
