Ahtushi –
Beautifully executed with stunning imagery this elaborate and crisply designed book is a mesmerising amalgamation of art and photography. Waswo is a master composer whose ideas play out on the canvas of miniature painter R. Vijay, Rajesh Soni adds hand tints to the photograph as waswo himself often enough fills up his own frames and he fits rather well into his own compositions. There is depth , irony, subtlety and flair in every image. This is one of those books that is continuously brought down from the book shelf simply because you never really tire of looking at these images over and over. The quality design and top notch printing quality along with well written text that weaves in behind the scenes tales on many an ‘Udaipur mornings…’ makes it a book full of treasures on many fronts . I highly recommend this book for any lover of art, photography or just a lover of jaw dropping ethereal books!
