Indian Textiles, Paperback / softback Book

Indian Textiles Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

This comprehensive survey of textiles from every region of the Indian subcontinent runs the gamut of commercial, tribal and folk textiles.

The authors first place them in cultural context by examining the history, materials and various techniques – weaving, dyeing, printing and painting.

They then give a detailed region-by-region account of traditional textile production, including chapters on Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.

A dazzling array of images provides an unsurpassed visual account of the textiles, while a detailed reference section with further reading, museums and information on technical terms completes this essential guide.
