Full Description

In a text sumptuously illustrated in color, the author and photographer, Stephen P. Huyler, surveys this exciting craft through examples from all over India. He documents contemporary potters; their techniques and production, and the use of clay in households and temples today, exploring comparison of today’s products with those of ancient India. Discovered by the author during nineteen years of extensive research, travel and photography throughout the Indian subcontinent, most of these sculptures and vessels have never been documented before.
