Synopsis

• A coffee-table book of breathtaking vistas of the Himalayas by landscape photographer Ashok Dilwali, who was in turn inspired by the paintings of Nicholas Roerich

One of India's best known photographers - Ashok Dilwali's images of the majestic Himalayas recapture the magic and majesty of Russian landscape artist Nicholas Roerich's genius in this coffee-table book. Following the same arduous path of the Russian master and nurturing the same passion for mountain scape, Dilwali evokes the full splendor and spirit of these awe-inspiring ranges by photographing the luminous landscapes which Roerich lovingly painted. Enduring harsh weather and conditions, Ashok Dilwali charts a love affair with Tibet, Ladakh, Himachal Pradesh and Jammu and Kashmir, among other regions in these mountains.

Ashok Dilwali has been a photographer for forty years. Although his work spans a wide range, including commercial, industrial and portraiture, it is his landscape photography for which he is best known. He, undoubtedly, reigns supreme in mountain photography in India, and has mastered the art of capturing the exact mood at appropriate angles and presents the Himalayas, its people and places in a form and style never seen before. Dilwali has held several exhibitions of his photographs and has contributed to the Incredible India (Ministry of Tourism) campaign. He won two gold medals in the International Photography Competition held in Austria in 2005 and 2006. Ashok Dilwali has more than twenty photography publications to his credit.
