Product Description
Product Description
Brahma, the creator, is unhappy with the world he has created and sends Vishnu, the preserver, to the new world to set it right. Taking the form of a fish, Vishnu finds the man who can help him start afresh, and re-create a living world. Readers of this archaic myth of flood and resurrection will recognise parallels in other cultures. The intense and intricate art in this handmade book captures the cosmic sweep of the classic story. Each etching is screen-printed in fine silver ink on dark blue paper.
