Between the 8th and 13th centuries, the Chola dynasty was the dominant cultural, artistic, religious and political force in southern India. The bronze representations of Shiva and other Hindu gods are the most spectacular objects that they created.
This extensively illustrated book, now available for the special offer price of £10.00*, is the catalogue of a recent exhibition at the Royal Academy which presented over 40 of these exquisite objects. The authors explore how and why they came to be made and the role they played within Hinduism and Chola culture. Full-page illustrations and lavish details of the works reveal the beauty of these sensational and technically brilliant cast bronzes.
Format: 30x22cms / 160 pages / 120 illustrations. *Previously available for £35.00.
