Description

|
|
|
In India the Hindu deity Ganesha, representing good will, hope, and healthy self-indulgence, is depicted everywhere—on village walls and in cyber cafes, on handbags and the sides of trucks, in textile prints and neon lights, and in the most sacred precincts of ancient temples. Taking the jovial form of a big-bellied man with many arms, an elephant's head, and human eyes, his appearance enchants the faithful and transcends cultural barriers. This beautifully photographed book is a lush visual tribute to Ganesha, with vivid color images up to 17 x 12 inches and brightly colored pages, describing such attributes as his sacred trunk, the snake that girdles his body, the mouse he rides upon, and the blessings he bestows on his followers.
