About the Book
In commemoration of the 50th anniversary of India's independence from Great Britain, this volume and a major touring exhibition of the same title constitute an unprecedented gathering of exquisite color and b&w photographs (many of them full-page, and some accompanied by text) as the culmination of a quest to capture the country's essence visually and to depict the deep and complex love that binds both native-born and foreign artists to India for a lifetime. Contains an essay titled "The Sacred and the Secular" and a chronology. No index. Oversize: 12x11<">. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
