An illustrated guide to India's greatest epic, which has shaped Indian thought for over 3,000 years, with stories from all 18 chapters, the Bhagavad Gita, and the Harivamsa. The Illustrated Mahabharata brings the world's longest epic to life. With more than 500 stunning images showcasing India's varied art forms, the book encapsulates the complete stories in a uniquely accessible way.

This coffee table-worthy book is wrapped in a textured jacket with gold foil, making it a great gift for mythology enthusiasts, history buffs, and readers interested in Indian culture., Take a fresh look at India's great epic and rediscover the lost kingdoms, dynasties, and characters of the Mahabharata, accompanied by beautiful images and discussion points.

Its stories resonate with us even today through its themes of conflict and dilemmas and have been drawn on for inspiration in film, theatre, and art. The Illustrated Mahabharata follows the tale as it unfolds through 18 episodes, or parvas, alongside stunning photographs, paintings, sculptures, and historical artifacts. Discover the principal characters of the Mahabharata and their family trees, and understand key moments - from the birth of Pandavas and Kauravas to the death of the elders. This definitive guide also highlights important quotes, themes, and historical context points to explore and enrich your understanding of the stories.

    Really good seller! Shipped between cardboard and in a padded envelope the condition of the book was exactly as described in the listing. Good price and value IMO, given the quality and appearance (very good) of the book, the speed at which the order was shipped, I couldn’t be happier. I would absolutely recommend this seller to anyone - great job (and thank you!!) 🙏

    The shipping time was very good. The packaging 📦 was excellent. It was double boxed and all of the points that could be damaged, were double protectoedd. The sailfish was better in person than described by the seller. It's value is well worth what I purchased it for. I am very happy with my purchase.

    Beautiful book, not the actual epic poem, very heavy weight

    Beautiful book. Be warned, it doesn't have the actual Mahabharata; it's a guide. But it's beautiful, full of lavish and helpful illustrations, and describes the contents of the epic very well. You can use it to jump to a book or section and know what's going on. Be warned, this book is physically HEAVY. I did not expect it to weigh so much!
