 5000 Designs and Motifs from India March 13, 2008
This book is just okay. Five thousand designs is a lot to put into one book. If I had realized this BEFORE I bought this book, I would have known these pictures were all very TINY. Although this book is overwhelming, I give it 3 stars for inspiration.

This book was a real disappointment. I expected to see well drawn motifs with sources listed. This book delivered a whole lot of images that are hard to use and really poorly drawn.
Beautiful overview of images! October 1, 2007
This is a great way to get aquainted with India's graphic history.There are many items worth using and particularly clear for many art project uses!Have fun!
Good Collection November 9, 2006

This is an excellent collection of images that cover a wide range of subject matter. All of the images are approximately 5 cm wide by 3.5 cm high, so you would need access to a good scanner and softwware program to use them at any significant size.
3000 designs I might say. August 21, 2006
This book has a nice selection of Indian designs although some are very simple & primitive.I bought it for using in graphic designs, not all the patterns but at least 1/3 are useful.Nevertheless I'm very fond of owning it.
