Rabindra Chitravali [4 Vol.] Edited & Introduced by R Siva Kumar Late in life, Rabindranath Tagore turned to painting, producing a formidable body of work, pioneering modernism in Indian art. Rabindra Chitravali is the most comprehensive documentation of any modern Indian artist to date, in its collection of more than 2000 images of Tagore's paintings, drawings and doodles, most of them reproduced with special care to capture the tones and colours of the originals-for the first time ever. A rich critical apparatus — including commentaries, notes, relevant information and technical details relating to the works reproduced, and an overarching introduction, all provided by Professor R Siva Kumar; translations of Tagore's own writings on art and aesthetics and his own painting culled from his essays, correspondence, notes and recorded conversations, and published reviews of his exhibitions — provides a framework for a fresh reading and viewing of the works. An annotated thumbnail catalogue complements the complete set of four volumes, all prudently produced on imported uncoated 145 GSM Natural Evolution paper, draped in cloth-binding and French jacket, in sturdy sleeve cases.
