520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. "The 300 Years of Calcutta and its celebrations have renewed the people's interest in the city's past. The phenomenal growth of the city from a number of slumbering villages to a vibrant metropolis is in itself an attractive story. Still more absorbing is the account of its achievements in socio-political and cultural spheres. Calcutta can indeed boast of its contributions to the realm of creative arts. In painting the city's claim is unparallel in modern India; and its annals of the last two hundred years and more are really fascinating.<br/>The Calcutta Paintings endeavours to present for the first time a connected history of the development of the art from the beginnings to the date. This history is told with reference to broader socio-political context.<br/>The cultural ethos of different ages, which largely moulded the art ideals of the periods, are discussed to appreciate in proper perspective the aims and achievements of various schools and styles.<br/>Besides, all the major painters are especially marked and their works duly assessed. With 90 selective reproductions of paintings and drawings, most of which are in colour, this book, written in a lucid style, promises to be a worthy possession of an art-lover."-- Book cover
