Summary
  1. "The book is a first attempt to open up a window for the viewers to immerse themselves into the prolific world of unknown and unsung Indian master sculptors and acknowledge their existence and understand the glyptic aesthetics of their creation through their very own eyes. It has a rare compilation of 178 colourful images with references. The book informs us about the journey of the various sculptor guilds connected in time and their legacies that have been carried in myriad ways by the subsequent masters to fathom the twists and turns of Indian Sculptures. We must revive and remember these creative geniuses of our Indian cultural lineage who are the markers who stood at the most significant turning points of the history of Indian Sculpture and give these veterans the limelight that they truly deserve."
