Kejariwal | | Abstract: If ever there has been an unsung genius, it is James Prinsep. Born in 1799, he had a short life of only forty years, dying in 1840. Amidst all the hectic activity, one can almost picture him sitting on a winter afternoon on one of the ghats, with the river flowing quietly by, looking around and then conceiving of this magnificent work Benares Illustrated. As you turn these pages, you not only travel with him from ghat to ghat, but also participate in the life of the city. | | Remarks: Beautiful B&W Sketches of Benares. | | Edition: Limited Edition | | Pages: 232 | | Size(mm): 270 x 310 | | Weight(grams): 2500 | | Price: US$ 400.00 | | FURTHER DETAILS | ADD TO SHOPPING CART |
