Alchi: Treasure of the Himalayas Hardcover – February 15, 2019

El libro es una maravilla en todo sentido. Lo compré segunda mano y está impecable.

Ladakh is an amazing place and Alchi is a doubly amazing center of art unlike any other in the Tibetan region. The dry climate and lack of Red Guard wanton iconoclastic destruction leaves a marvelous collection of art showing Iranian, Hellenistic, Tibetan, indic and Chinese influences. Meticulously photographed and annotated this is a large book but one wishes a volume 2 were possible as well. I am very familiar with trans Himalayan Buddhist art, but this book had surprises of motifs I've seen nowhere else. Please consider adding this to your Tibetan art book collection.

One of the most beautiful and interesting art albums I have ever seen.
