These details are glued to the letf side of the slipcase.; VERY HARD TO FIND THE 3 VOLUMES TOGETHER.; The Portuguese voyages brought about a dramatic revolution: they were the first real interaction among the cultures of the world in modern times, and the ensuing cultural, social, and economic interchanges led to the creation of striking beautiful and highly original works of art. This exhibition examined those voyages of exploration to Africa, Asia, and South America and the unique empire that resulted - one based on trade rather than on territory. In keeping with the vast territory covered by the exhibition, the catalogue has been published in three volumes. Like the exhibition itself, the three volumes offer an unforgettable image of a new world in formation.; The three volumes are: Encompassing the Globe: Portugal and the World in the 16th and 17th Centuries, ISBN: 978-0-934686-04-4, 386 pages with black and white and colour illustrations. This incredible collection of images, drawn from a new Smithsonian exhibition, features more than 250 full-color reproductions of paintings, sculptures, manuscripts, maps, early books, and many other extraordinary creations from museums and private holdings around the world.; Encompassing the Globe: Portugal and the World in the 16th and 17th Centuries - Reference Catalogue, ISBN: 978-0-934686-06-8, 208 pages. This one features detailed descriptions of the 250-plus exhibition objects, written by experts in the field.; Encompassing the Globe: Portugal and the World in the 16th and 17th Centuries - Essays, ISBN: 978-0-394686-07-5, 312 pages. This third and final volume features scholarly essays, written by experts in the field, that place the Portuguese voyages in context and shed new light on the period, especially on the motivations behind Portuguese expansion, including the remarkable story of the search for Eastern spices.
