Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Charm of Kashmir
The place of honour will be rightly assigned to the paintings of aban indro nath tagore, whose work as the founder and inspirer of the modern school Of Indian Art at Calcutta, has attracted wide attention, not only in India, but in Paris, in London, and in New York. The grace, softness, and beauty of line which characterise his work Speak for themselves; and the qualities of Vision and of Poetic insight which are displayed in the examples before us, require that they shall be considered as something more than mere Illustrations.
They are interpretations in colour of the soul of Kashmir in so far as it finds expression in these pages, and they depict something more than the external beauty that is acknowledged by the eye of every traveller in that exquisite country.
