E-book Zimmer

 पत्थरों को तराश

कलाकार ने सजाया है जहाँ

समेट कर शब्दों और तस्वीरों  में

लेखक ने बाँधा है समाँ

The Art of Indian Asia: Its Mythology and Transformation, 2 Vols

by 

Heinrich Robert Zimmer,

 

Joseph Campbell (Editor)

GCA Library boosts of its collection in the field of art. One of the gems is the Book mentioned above. Popularly known as “Zimmer” only. This two-volume work, published in 1955, a unique product of scholarship and photography, presents a view of Indian Art. It is believed to be the most comprehensive ever undertaken work on Indian art. Its text volume approaches the subject in close detail and in a rapidly moving and entertaining form of exposition. The second volume contains the plates (photographs). A browse through the book takes the reader to the journey of art in Indian Asia in a beautiful manner. No need to rush to the library for this book. To your pleasant surprise this book in pdf form is available here.

Enjoy the beautiful volumes of Indian Art.

Pathway for BFA aspirants


हो के मायूस यूं शाम-से ढलते रहिये
ज़िन्दगी भोर है सूरज-से निकलते रहिये

एक ही ठांव पे ठहरेंगे तो थक जायेंगे
धीरे-धीरे ही सही राह पे चलते रहिये
