Download or read book Arts of India written by Ajit Mookerjee and published by Tuttle Publishing. This book was released on 2012-03-10 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This revised and enlarged edition of The Arts of India has over 150 impressive gravure and full-color illustrations. These include various important objects and monuments not usually seen in general surveys to supplement the many essential art milestones that this book features. It is also unique in beginning its visual survey with relics of India's stone age and in concluding the book with works from the nation's great folk tradition and selected paintings by modern artists. Here is a book with captions and a text that are highly readable blends of scholarly information and informal comment by an Indian art expert. This grants the reader special insights into the concepts that lie behind art so different from that of the West. Author Mookerjee has judiciously selected photographs which present the vast panorama of Indian art from its earliest beginnings. Examples of Indian folk arts and some works by 20th-century Indian artists round out this rich historic survey of over 5,000 years of continuous creativity—a collection of paintings, reliefs, statues, and architectural monuments from this sprawling sub-continent now divided into the lands of India, Pakistan, Ceylon, Burma and Afghanistan.

Download or read book Visions of Greater India written by Yorim Spoelder and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2023-11-23 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Greater India' was a transimperial, Indocentric research paradigm that informed the colonial recovery of the ancient past in Central and Southeast Asia. Ancient India was postulated as the fount of an expansive classicism – an actor in world history on a par with ancient Greece and Rome. Under the Greater India movement, the scholarly quest for 'India in Asia' became tied to anti-colonial, pedagogical, nationalist and Asianist agendas. Yet although it provided a potent anti-colonial imaginary, the movement also bolstered visions of Indian exceptionalism and energized Hindu nationalist ideas of India as a civilizing, colonizing power. Speaking directly to debates that define and divide India today, this is essential reading for those interested in the legacies of Orientalist scholarship and interwar visions of Indian internationalism.

Download or read book History Of Indian And Indonesian Art written by Ananda K. Coomaraswamy and published by . This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Illustrations: 400 b/w illustrations, 128 plates and 9 maps Description: This book is Ananda Coomaraswamy's classic study of Indian Art. As the major pioneering scholar in the field, Coomaraswamy possessed an extraordinary background in history, art-history, aesthetics, and Asian languages and philosophy, and this fascinating cultural study is one of his finest books, long regarded as one of the most significant contribution to the understanding of the Indian Art. Divided into six sections, each representing a chronological culture area, the book takes in material from the earliest Harappa archaeological finds up to Rajput and Sikh painting of the Mid-19th century and the early art and craft works at the beginning of this century. Most of the study deals with Indian Art, but Indonesia and the peripheries of Southeast Asia are covered where they reflect Indian influences. The concentration of the study is upon architecture and sculpture; however it also encompasses painting, jewellery, textiles, metalwork and other crafts. Background information on the history and geography of the area is provided for the reader along with philosophical, religious and social insights that are particularly valuable for the western reader. Dr. Coomaraswamy, Keeper of Indian and Muhammadan Art in the Boston Museum of Fine Arts was deeply sensitive to the beauty of the Indian art works. As a result, the illustrations he selected are unusually fine, comprising some of the most impressive examples of Indian art. Included among the illustrations are Indo-Sumerian seals, Maurya statues, Sunga reliefs, Kusana Buddha, Gupta and early medieval temples. Late medieval palaces, Rajput paintings, Ceylonese Buddhas, Burmese frescoes, Cambodian towers and assorted jewellery and metal, ivory and textile works. Beginning students of the orient or of art history could ask, for no finer Introduction to the history and aesthetics of Indian and Indonesian Art. The author's penetrating cultural insights make it an indispensable text for all who plan further study in the field.
Download or read book Indian Art written by Philip S. Rawson and published by London : Studio Vista ; New York : Dutton. This book was released on 1972 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a comprehensive survey of the tendencies in the history of Indian art. It aims primarily to explain what different artistic forms meant to their makers, and to give some idea of the realities of Indian life which affected Indian aesthetics. After referring to the earliest civilizations of India, that of the Indus Valley, and interpreting some of its enigmatic art, the book continues with a survey of early secular art and its influence on Buddhist expression. In dealing with Hindu art and architecture it points up especially the dynastic significance of the major monuments. It explains the special character of Indo-Muslim art, and the way it introduced new themes and interests. In then relates the achievements of the Rajput miniature painters to their complex artistic heritage. The illustrations have been chosen mainly because they illustrate unfamiliar examples from the vast range of Indian art, because they show familiar pieces in an unfamiliar way or because they convey the special atmosphere of the Indian environment before Western life had much affected it. -- From publisher's description.
