Editorial Reviews

Review

"Captures the stunning diversity evident in the formative years of photography in India. -- Anand Sankar, Business Standard "The lushness of the textiles, embroidery and jewellery, painted over to convey the glimmer of silk or the glitter of gold, can still be made out in the latest black-and-white versions of these chameleonic images." -- Aveek Sen, The Telegraph"

This review is from: Painted Photographs: Coloured Portraiture in India (Paperback)
Loved this book - a subject I'm really interested in. Found the text verbose and at time ridiculously academic, but pictures and paper quality excellent.
