Chola: Sacred bronzes of Southern India

A fantastic book possession this. It begins with an introduction that is more history than most books in the CBSE syllabus. Punctuated by poems from Tamil literature. And more. Followed by pages and pages photos and description of the best bronzes.

    Navneeth: Yup! Rather, it is a book about the art of the Cholas. Still.
