Inventory of Stone Sculptures of the Kathmandu Valley
Lain S Bangdel
Royal Nepal Academy, 1995
Rs 1,200

In the 1970s, the author, a noted painter and a leading authority in Nepali art, undertook the creation of an inventory of stone sculptures in the Valley. This book is the second and last volume in an archival project for which Bangdel meticulously gathered material and took photographs. His landmark work alerted the world to Nepali art theft and inspired other research work. It concentrates on the three cities of Kathmandu, Patan and Bhaktapur with a few other pocket areas outside the Valley.
