With an uninterrupted classical heritage, its craft forms were transformed into works of art - the village terracottas became the great bronzes, the wood carvings became splendid monuments in stone. Unlike other parts of India, Tamilnadu's geographic location in the far south protected it from extraneous influences and made for a certain insularity of culture which strengthened the styles from within. Contents: Introduction; Textiles; Bronzes; Metalware; Jewellery; Terracottas; Woodcrafts & Musical Instruments; Stone Craving; Thanjavur Paintings; Basketry & Fibre Craft; Festival Crafts & Folk Toys.

Condition: Sehr gut. 167 S. Umschlag leicht berieben, sonst gutes Exemplar. - Despite their beauty and variety, the crafts of Himachal Pradesh have not received the attention they deserve, nor have they been documented in a comprehensive book till now. Crafts of Himachal Pradesh is among the first books to fill this need. The picturesque people of this land, popularly known as Devabhumi, the abode of the gods, continue to express their innate creativity in numerous artefacts. Apart from fulfilling a functional purpose, these objects are steeped in tradition and are deeply rooted in the soil. All the crafts nurtured by the people of Himachal - be they clay toys, wood or stone carvings, metalwork, gold and silver ornaments, basketware, embroideries, woollen fabrics or ceremonial paintings executed in keeping with the seasonal cycle - bear the stamp of the sensitive fingers and refined sensibility of their creators. The link between the sophisticated classical tradition on the one hand and the spontaneous rural art tradition on the other has been highlighted in the chapters devoted to each of these craft traditions. One is struck by the contrast between the Himachal people's love of ornamentation and the simplicity of their lives. ISBN 094414246X Sprache: Deutsch Gewicht in Gramm: 1550 Mit zahlr. farb. Abb.

Hardcover. Turquoise cloth boards with white lettering on the spine; photo-illustrated DJ with white and gilt lettering; 127 pp.; richly illustrated; maps. "The Golconda diamonds and the mines of that name are the stuff of the Thousand and One Arabian Nights. Some of the most famours (or infamous) diamonds such as the Koh-i-Noor, the Hope and the Regent were found there. The chequered history of the Koh-i-Noor has been the favourite tramping ground for the historian and the popular writer. But the Koh-i-Noor was merely one of the many precious and lustrous diamonds mined there. Despite their fame, no comprehensive account of the Golconda diamonds and the mines has been available." -- DJ. VG+ (Boards are lightly shelf/edgeworn; interior is clean; binding is solid.).
