Download or read book Conservation and Painting Techniques of Wall Paintings on the Ancient Silk Road written by Shigeo Aoki and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-03-13 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents recent research on ancient Silk Road wall paintings, providing an up-to-date analysis of their coloring materials and techniques, and of developments in efforts to preserve them. The destruction of the Bamiyan Buddhas in 2001 encouraged international collaboration between conservation research institutes to study and protect the Silk Road’s painted heritage. The collaborations led to exciting new discoveries of the rich materials used in wall painting, including diverse pigments and colorants, and various types of organic binding media. In addition, comparative research across the region revealed shared painting practices that indicate the sophisticated exchange of technologies and ideas. In parallel with these advances in technical understanding, greater awareness and sensitivity has been fostered in endeavors to preserve this fragile heritage. The book offers insights obtained from conservation projects and ongoing research, that encompass the geographical regions and periods related to the Silk Road, including from Japan, China, Korea, India and Afghanistan, and countries of the Eastern Mediterranean region. It also discusses the current issues and future challenges in the field. Featuring concise chapters, the book is a valuable resource for students and professionals in the field of cultural heritage preservation, as well as those who are not familiar with the fascinating topic of Silk Road wall painting research.

Download or read book The Art of Ancient India written by Susan L. Huntington and published by Motilal Banarsidass. This book was released on 2014-01-01 with total page 786 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To scholars in the field, the need for an up-to-date overview of the art of South Asia has been apparent for decades. Although many regional and dynastic genres of Indic art are fairly well understood, the broad, overall representation of India's centuries of splendor has been lacking. The Art of Ancient India is the result of the author's aim to provide such a synthesis. Noted expert Sherman E. Lee has commented: –Not since Coomaraswamyês History of Indian and Indonesian Art (1927) has there been a survey of such completeness.” Indeed, this work restudies and reevaluates every frontier of ancient Indic art _ from its prehistoric roots up to the period of Muslim rule, from the Himalayan north to the tropical south, and from the earliest extant writing through the most modern scholarship on the subject. This dynamic survey-generously complemented with 775 illustrations, including 48 in full color and numerous architectural ground plans, and detailed maps and fine drawings, and further enhanced by its guide to Sanskrit, copious notes, extensive bibliography, and glossary of South Asian art terms-is the most comprehensive and most fully illustrated study of South Asian art available. The works and monuments included in this volume have been selected not only for their artistic merit but also in order to both provide general coverage and include transitional works that furnish the key to an all encompassing view of the art. An outstanding portrayal of ancient Indiaês highest intellectual and technical achievements, this volume is written for many audiences: scholars, for whom it provides an up-to-date background against which to examine their own areas of study; teachers and students of college level, for whom it supplies a complete summary of and a resource for their own deeper investigations into Indic art; and curious readers, for whom it gives a broad-based introduction to this fascinating area of world art.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Garland of Visions explores the generative relationships between artistic intelligence and tantric vision practices in the construction and circulation of visual knowledge in medieval South Asia. Shifting away from the traditional connoisseur approach, Jinah Kim instead focuses on the materiality of painting: its mediums, its visions, and especially its colors. She argues that the adoption of a special type of manuscript called pothi enabled the material translation of a private and internal experience of "seeing" into a portable device. These mobile and intimate objects then became important conveyors of many forms of knowledge—ritual, artistic, social, scientific, and religious—and spurred the spread of visual knowledge of Indic Buddhism to distant lands. By taking color as the material link between a vision and its artistic output, Garland of Visions presents a fresh approach to the history of Indian painting.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Present Monograph Seeks To Record The Place And Development Of Elephant Symbol In The Mythology And The Art Of India Over A Period Of 5000 Years. It Is Amazing As To How Strikingly A Unity In Diversity In Most Indian Religions Is Displayed Through This Symbol. Elephant Form Has Been Used As A Common Denominator In The Folk As Well As The Religious Cults But Having Different Impacts. The Wide Spectrum Of Indian Culture Contains Various Colours Of Different Intensity. Different Kinds Of People, Races, Languages, Religions And Traditions Made Indian Culture Vital And Colourful. The Elephant Rotates With Every Colour Of The Spectrum. How The Animal Impressed The People Through The Ages Is Sought To Be Explained By The Author Along With All The Myths And Stories Associated With It. As A Divine Member Elephant Was Supposed To Have Come Into Existence Out Of The Sea On The Occasion Of Churning Of The Ocean (Samudramanthana) As Airavata The Milk White Elephant. On The Folk Level A Cult Developed Around It. Jataka Stories Refer To Elephant Pillars And Statues And Tradition Of Performing Hastisutra And Hastimangala-Elephant 1Estival. Besides As A Folk Divinity It Also Penetrated In Buddhist And Jain Mythologies. It Is The Inner Vitality Of Indian Culture Which Has Been The Result Of Intimate Connection Between Nature And Human Inspiration. That Is Why, Indian Religion, Art And Literature Are Rooted In The Natural Environment. Ganesa The Elephant God Is The Best Example Of The Oneness Of Nature And Human Factor As Reflected In The Realm Of Art And Literature. Ganesa Is Only One Of The Aspects Of The Multidimensional Personality Of The Elephant Which Embodies The Various Hues And Colours Of The Indian Cultural Tradition. Thus, Dr. Gupta Herein Offers A Detailed Statement Regarding The Historical Development Of Elephant Symbol In Indian Myths And Art. This Must Be Counted As A Unique Effort In Understanding The Symbolism Of Indian Culture Through Elephant Symbol.
