Woven Textiles of the Varanasi presentes a significantly curated cross-section of the textile treasures offered by Varanasi in India. It links these beautiful creations to the city's history and makes the case for rediscovering and preserving this great art form. Jaya Jaitly highlights the danger of the loss of livelihoods and highly sophisticated skills in the wake of machine-made imitation. This book is illustrated with full-colour photographs of the weavers and their works.
