A pictorial survey of the rich use of floral motifs in the details of India’s architectural wonders, depicted here in Henry Wilson’s fine photographs and breathtakingly precise drawings.

Henry Wilson's drawings - which in a magically abstract form copy the decoration illustrated or perform variations on it - allow the reader to understand and revel in the Indian aesthetic. They can also inspire designers to find patterns in existing decoration and produce original results. This book is suitable for lovers of both design and India.
