[For the entire collection see Zbl 0747.00024.] \textit{E. M. Andreev} [Math. USSR, Sb. 12(1970), 255-259 (1970); translation from Mat. Sb., n. Ser. 83(125), 256-260 (1970; Zbl 0203.549)] has given a complete characterization of compact convex polyhedra in 3-dimensional hyperbolic space \({\mathcal H}^ 3\) with dihedral angles \(\leq\pi/2\). \textit{I. Rivin} [``On geometry of convex polyhedra in hyperbolic 3-space, Ph. D. thesis, Princeton (1986)] obtained a new characterization for the shapes of convex hyperbolic polyhedra with arbitrary dihedral angles \(<\pi\), using a generalized Gauss map. The present paper simplifies Rivin's derivation of Andreev's theorem.
