  1. Aditi Saurav –

    The author describes the religious influences well. Book can be a little dry but worth reading for serious art students.

  2. Reetish Mohan Panigrahy –

    Comprehensive and detailed! The images are captivating. The sketches needed more work. Overall, a good source of reference.

  3. Nipun Sharma –

    The book is very informative but sometimes feels repetitive. The author covers a lot of information on the sculptures.

  4. Vinay Beniwal –

    Very informative book. It has a lot of images which help understand the concepts. A great book for researchers and students alike.

  5. Naresh Lalwani –

    I was hoping for a deeper dive into the ‘style’ aspect mentioned in the title. Iconography is well-covered, though.

  6. Purnyatre Gaur –

    Thaplyal does a great job connecting the sculptures to the region’s religious context. Some sections were a bit dry, but the insights are worth it.

  7. Srijan Agrawal Manglik –

    Enjoyed learning about the Kushana and Gupta periods. I am bit disapointed with the metal images. Overall good book.

  8. Yash Verma –

    A comprehensive look at Punjab’s sculptures. The inclusion of rare metal images was a pleasant surprise. Highly recommended!

  9. Kushal Jaiswal –

    A must-have for art historians! The book provides deep insights. I learned so much. The images are well detailed.

  10. Ankit Sharma –

    The plates are fantastic, showcasing the breadth of Punjab’s sculptural heritage. The sketches could be better, but overall, a worthwhile read.

  11. Harikrishnan P –

    An academic work, dense with information. Not a casual read, but rewarding if you’re serious about the subject.

  12. Pankaj Dhalaria –

    A good overview, but I wish there was more focus on specific artistic techniques. Still, a valuable resource for anyone interested in Punjab’s art history.
