PASRICHA, AMIT (photographs) with text by Aman Nath. Monumental India. Foreword by William Dalrymple; 224 pages, roughly 130 color plates. Oblong folio, cloth. New York, Vendome Press, 2008.
A stand-back-in-awe sensation is the result of leafing through this book of panoramic, landscape format color photos taken in Northern India. Although the subjects are often familiar (the Taj Mahal - again. A Rajput fort - yawn), this photographer captures color and detail in a way that makes the images we have seen before look jewel-like and completely new.
