The Art and Architecture of the Indian Subcontinent pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
The arts of the East - and particularly India - continue to hold a fascination for the West, whether masterworks like the Taj Mahal or the intricate sculpture, paintings and the many fine achievements in the decorative arts. This book vividly illuminates the glories of five millennia of artistic and architectural heritage, and is the first scholarly account in English to deal with the entire subcontinent, including Afghanistan, Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. Many years of research and first-hand knowledge of the region enable the author to trace the cultural contacts which have contributed to the rich mosaic of sculpture, temples, mosques and painting which together have contributed to the creation of one of the world's great civilizations. Almost 400 photographs, several in colour, accompany the text. All the areas, monuments and sites referred to are pinpointed on maps, making the book invaluable both as a guide and as the definitive study of its subject. For this edition (the first appeared in 1986), the text has been thoroughly revised and the extensive illustrative content overhauled. (Kirkus UK)
