Description
Volume five of Walter Spink's monumental "Ajanta" series systematically and exhaustively describes each cave, starting with the imperial cave 1. With the help of the earlier published volumes, this detailed analysis of each cave's features will assist the reader and visitor in piecing together the huge jig-saw of Ajanta's history and development and will enable him to read the stones for himself. Many of the most telling and significant illustrations of the story of Ajanta can be found in illustrations volume four. The cave-to-cave treatment is preceded by a concise mini guide to the complex, putting, in a nutshell, the main arguments and conclusions.
