Book Summary
About the Book: Baluchars: The Woven Narrative Silks of Bengal
The historic baluchar textiles of Bengal are a testament to a unique weaving
tradition. Composed of the finest silk, these textiles were painstakingly woven
with intricate figurative and decorative patterns. They represent more than just
a textile tradition. They are a window into the sociocultural set-up of the
eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The transition from Nawabi to colonial rule
in Bengal has been beautifully captured through these textiles. This richly
illustrated book traces the historical development of baluchar textiles,
especially saris, and the position this Art form has come to acquire in the
twenty-first century. By dissecting
