Añadir al carritoSoft cover. Condición: New. Readings on Painting, a double issue and the last in the archival series, commemorating Marg having completed its 75th year in publication, lays out the integral role that the magazine played—and continues to play—in the shaping of South Asia's national and regional imaginaries. It maps this long and…trail-blazing journey—from early preoccupations with the political, religious and cultural origins of style to more recent studies of paintings as registers of emotion, wonder, knowledge and the art market. Although painting has often been perceived as the sole purview of manuscripts and elite male spheres, the volume expands its remit to include murals, textiles, scrolls and standalone works on paper, many produced for broad consumption and many created by women. Guest edited by Dipti Khera and Yael Rice, this volume provides an overview of the key debates and methods that have shaped the study of Indian painting over the last 75 years.

Hardcover. Condición: VG+/VG+. Hardcover with orange cloth wrap and color glossy printed dustjacket. 399 pages : illustrations (chiefly color), color maps This item is still in the original unopened plastic wrap. Around 1700, artists in Udaipur began creating large, immersive paintings to convey the mood of the city's palaces, l…akes, and mountains.

With dazzling works made over a period of two hundred years that extends from Mughal to colonial India, and by drawing upon previously untranslated sources and engaging with the history of the senses, this publication opens early modern art history to new interpretative possibilities, while revealing the visual logic and beauty of Udaipur paintings.

Hardback. Condición: New. A look at the painting traditions of northwestern India in the eighteenth century, and what they reveal about the political and artistic changes of the eraIn the long eighteenth century, artists from Udaipur, a city of lakes in northwestern India, specialized in depicting the vivid sensory ambience of i…ts historic palaces, reservoirs, temples, bazaars, and durbars. As Mughal imperial authority weakened by the late 1600s and the British colonial economy became paramount by the 1830s, new patrons and mobile professionals reshaped urban cultures and artistic genres across early modern India. The Place of Many Moods explores how Udaipur's artworks-monumental court paintings, royal portraits, Jain letter scrolls, devotional manuscripts, cartographic artifacts, and architectural drawings-represent the period's major aesthetic, intellectual, and political shifts. Dipti Khera shows that these immersive objects powerfully convey the bhava-the feel, emotion, and mood-of specific places, revealing visions of pleasure, plenitude, and praise. These memorialized moods confront the ways colonial histories have recounted Oriental decadence, shaping how a culture and time are perceived.Illuminating the close relationship between painting and poetry, and the ties among art, architecture, literature, politics, ecology, trade, and religion, Khera examines how Udaipur's painters aesthetically enticed audiences of courtly connoisseurs, itinerant monks, and mercantile collectives to forge bonds of belonging to real locales in the present and to long for idealized futures. Their pioneering pictures sought to stir such emotions as love, awe, abundance, and wonder, emphasizing the senses, spaces, and sociability essential to the efficacy of objects and expressions of territoriality.The Place of Many Moods uncovers an influential creative legacy of evocative beauty that raises broader questions about how emotions and artifacts operate in constituting history and subjectivity, politics and place.
