Its sparkling character has always tempted art connoisseurs all over the world. Unfortunately, not much has been written about it.  This catalog depicting the masterpieces of National Museum Bidri collection is illustrated with black and white and color photographs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe collection of the National Museum consists of over 175000 works of art and antiquity and belongs to twenty-two disciplines i.e., Archaeology, Sculptures, Bronzes, Terracottas, Manuscripts, Paintings, Decorative Arts, Arms \u0026amp; Armour, Anthropology, Numismatics \u0026amp; Epigraphy, etc. Of these over 10000 items are in the collection of Decorative Arts alone.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlans are already afoot to store the collection of the National Museum on laser video disc and also to publish comprehensive catalogues; however, that would take sometime. Since the collection of the Decorative Arts is also very sizeable, it has been considered appropriate to publish catalogues of exhibits of specific categories; hence this one of Bidri ware.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContents\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcknowledgements\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDirector General’s Foreword\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBidri Ware in the National Museum Collection\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAppendices\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCatalogue\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGlossary\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBibliography\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLine Drawings\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eColour Plates\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The India Club","offers":[{"title":"Krishna Lal \/ National Museum \/ Hardcover","offer_id":68153693634928,"sku":"11059","price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5203\/9792\/files\/11059.jpg?v=1793912696","url":"https:\/\/marketcalvexa.shop\/products\/bidri-ware","provider":"Alderstone House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
