History of fine arts in India and the west.
TOMORY (Edith).
History of fine arts in India and the west. - Bombay. Orient Longman., 1982 - xx,532
A History of Fine Arts in India and the West, the fruit of over thirtythree years of teaching experience of the author in India, offers a comprehensive evaluation of the history of Indian and Western art, in continuation of the author's earlier book An Introduction of the History of Fine Arts in India and the West.
The book is unique in several ways. To begin with, it is the only textbook for the Indian market. The approach is simple and lucid, free of jargon and assumptions of extensive previous knowledge on the part of the student. This accessibility, however, does not take away from the book's substance. It is packed with enough well-presented material to be a solid foundation for higher studies in the subject. The book includes a simple yet perceptive survey of modern art and its trends in terms comprehensible and meaningful to students.
The text is well supported by line drawings on almost every page and 64 pages of half-tones. A glossary, bibliography and Sanskrit pronunciation guide are further aids for students and lovers of fine arts and Asian culture courses.
