Art Books: Illustrated Books on Indian Art, Architecture, Photography and Design

Art books are meant to be looked at slowly. The titles on this page are full of pictures: the temples of India, the Golden Temple, palaces and courtyard houses, Indian interiors, Rajasthan and royal journeys by train. They belong on a coffee table as much as on a bookshelf. If you are searching for coffee table books, photography books or books on Indian art and want to buy art books online, begin here.

Coffee Table Books on India

A good illustrated book on India is a gift that suits almost anyone: a colleague, a client, a relative settled abroad or a host you are visiting. Books on temples, forts, palaces and traditional homes show a side of the country that a short holiday rarely reaches. Several of these titles are also published in French and Spanish for overseas readers, so check the language shown on the book page.

Drawing and Painting Books for Learners

If you are looking for drawing books or painting books to learn from, think about your level first. Beginners do best with step by step books that start from simple shapes. For young children, colouring and craft books build the hand control that drawing needs, and you will find those in Creative Hands and the wider Picture and Activity Books shelf.

How to Choose an Art Book

Look at the format: hardbound books show pictures best and survive years of handling.
Decide between looking and learning: a picture book inspires, a technique book teaches. Few books do both.
Buy by subject you love: a place you have visited or an art form you already enjoy is the surest choice.
