Sculptures of Kashmir
Synopsis
Kashmir, having been a great centre of art and culture during ancient and medieval period, has attracted the attention of various writers and researchers. They, in their own sincere efforts have written a lot about architectural set-ups of Kashmir. But very little has been discussed about its sculptures. There is hardly any book or article which deals in the sculptures of Kashmir made in stone, ivory etc. in a chronological sequence emphasizing the evolution, development and the rise and fall of the art of Kashmir. The present dissertation aims at studying comprehensively the medieval sculptures of Kashmir from 600-1200 A.D. In working out a detailed idea of this study, the author has thrown light on the historical perspective, growth of religious beliefs, centres of artistic activity, iconographic aspects and artistic evaluation of the sculptures of this valley and reverberations of Kashmiri Sculptures elsewhere. Enriched with some very fine illustrations this book will prove a treasure-house to the readers.
