An Unknown Treasure in Rajasthan:The Bundi Wall-Paintings

The royal fort at Bundi, an isolated town in the Indian state of Rajasthan, is home to elaborately decorated palaces that are among India’s most beautiful buildings. Until recently several of these palaces have been completely closed to visitors, keeping their painted walls hidden from public view but also aiding their preservation. This unprecedented volume celebrates the survival of the wall-paintings at Bundi by presenting a striking photographic survey of these long-hidden treasures, most published for the first time, and including both abundant details and many scenes that are difficult to view with the naked eye. —- ISBN: 9780500517383 | ISBN10: 050051738X | ISBN-13: 978-0500517383
