Illustrated
from museums across the world, Masterpieces of Indian
Art is a rich and stunning portrayal of the most
precious treasures of Indian art. Extensive photo
research and detailed examination of every facet of the
arts make it nothing less than a book of illustrated art
history.
Its scope stretches across nearly
four millennia, and it covers ground beginning from the
art of the Harappans to Chola bronzes, Mughal
miniatures, and the exquisitely crafted jewellery and
textiles of India. Written by an expert whose reading of
art history for the ordinary reader manages to be both
simple and subtle, it is both lucid and thorough.
Ambitious in its range, meticulous in its details, and
insightful in its commentary, Masterpieces of Indian Art
is a jewel of a book.
