Soft cover. Zustand: Good. 1st Edition. 395 pages : illustrations (chiefly colour), maps (chiefly colour), plans, facsimiles (some colour) ; 30 cm. Published to accompany an exhibition held at the Victoria & Albert Museum, 23 September - 5 December 2004, London, England. Summary:"This book accompanies a major V & A exhibition that explores three hundred years of mutual fascination between East and West, a period of discoveries, encounters and exchanges initiated by the Portuguese explorer Vasco de Gama's discovery of a sea route to India in 1498. This established, for the first time, direct relations between Europe and maritime Asia and ushered in a dynamic period of commercial, artistic and technological exchange. This story is presented through wide-ranging essays by leading international scholars, including specialists from the V & A. The text is complemented by a sumptuous range of images, many of these remarkable and luxurious pieces being published for the first time." "In its close examination of the relationships - diplomatic, religious and personal - between East and West, this book provides both an important scholarly record of this vibrant period in world history and a document of the works of art and industry that it produced."--Jacket.

Hardcover. Zustand: As New. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen. Indiens Maharaja haben die Phantasie des Westens mit der Vision einer Welt voller Schönheit und Luxus beflügelt. In ihrer Machtfülle als Gebieter über weitgedehnte Länder mit zahllosen Untertanen sind sie seit dem 18. Jahrhundert als spirituelle Meister, Feldherren und Politiker, besonders aber als Auftraggeber für Kostbarkeiten von exorbitantem Rang hervorgetreten. Mit der Unterstützung der königlichen Sammlungen in Udaipur und Jodhpur sowie in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Victoria and Albert Museum London vermögen Ausstellung und Buch ein Spektrum der Mogul-Zeit Indiens zu präsentieren, wie es in Europa bisher noch nie gezeigt worden ist. Es umfasst die ganze grandiose Vielfalt von Schmuck und kostbaren Miniaturen, Waffen und höfischen Kleidern, Thronen und Sänften bis hin zu den Prunkgeschirren der Elefanten. Zu den Facetten des dargebotenen Materials gehören die hierzulande wenig bemerkten geschichtlichen Entwicklungen Indiens bis zum Ende der Kolonialzeit, aber auch Einblicke in die höfischen Sitten mit ihren Festen und der Lebenssphäre der Frauen in den Palästen, ihrer geheimnisvollen Zurückgezogenheit, ihrem Flair und ihrer Eleganz. Allein das 'Kollier von Patiala', das Cartier 1928 aus 2.930 Diamanten herstellte, ist als Exponat eine Sensation. Das Katalogbuch widmet sich dem Reichtum des Themas mit der gebotenen Opulenz und gibt dem einmaligen Ausstellungsereignis seine dauerhafte Würdigung.

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Dust Jacket Included. 1st Edition. English text; Hardcover (with dust jacket); 26 x 29.7 cm, 2.487 Kg; 396 pages with colour illustrations; Used with signs of wear on the exterior and interior. The dust jacket has edge wear, and scuffs and scratches on the front cover, spine and back cover. Interior with minor signs of wear. Very good condition overall.; This book accompanies a major V&A exhibition that explores three hundred years of mutual fascination between East and West, a period of discoveries, encounters and exchanges initiated by the Portuguese explorer Vasco da Gama''s discovery of a sea route to India in 1948. This established, for the first time, direct relations between Europe and maritime Asia and ushered in a dynamic period of commercial, artistic and technological exchange. This compelling story is presented through wide-ranging essays by leading international scholars, including specialists from the V&A. The text is complemented by a sumptuous range of images, many of these remarkable and luxurious pieces being published for the first time. Discoveries, the book''s opening section, examines the western fascination for the materials and technologies of Asia, which existed even before direct contact was established, and charts the route that early Europeans took to the Indies and the new, sophisticated worlds they found there. Encounters, the second section, looks at the human dimension of the story, the meeting of peoples from East and West in different spheres, from highly formalised court audiences to intimate relationships. The exotic visitors from the West aroused much curiosity in Asia as demonstrated in the many Asian depictions of foreigners and their ships. This section also explores how these pale-skinned, strangely dressed peoples were perceived in the East and how images of them were appropriated into existing Asian iconographies. The final section, Exchanges, explores cross-influences in taste, technology and trade. In Europe there was an immediate demand for luxuries such as porcelain, lacquer and textiles made in Asia but suited to western living. In Asia, it was European technology that was most sought after. Clocks, guns, maps and lenses were all imported and simulated by different Asian cultures. In its close examination of the relationships diplomatic, religious and personal between East and West, this book provides both an important scholarly record of this vibrant period in world history and a beautiful document of the works of art and industry that it produced.
