5.0 out of 5 stars The Nepalese Caitya, August 1, 2001
By 
Schildt Henri (Helsinki, - Finland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Nepalese Caitya: 1500 Years of Buddhist Votive Architecture in the Kathmandu Valley (Monograph Series / Lumbini International Research Institute) (Hardcover)
This book is a monumental work on Buddhist monuments in Kathmandu Valley (Nepal). It has requred a thorough study and long periods of fielwork in the country itself. Not only the graphics, including black-and-white photos and line drawings, give a very elegant impression, but the reader is also impressed of the very thorough and accurate descriptions of monuments with technical terms given in Sanskrit or local languages. Though this work gives a lot to those who are eager to study the history of oriental arts, its mere browsing is delightful to anyone.
