Sorry, Geoffrey
I think I sent the following email to the general list by mistake while I
meant to send it to you. Here it is again.

Subject: NEW BOOKS ON PERSIAN LITHOGRAPHY
Two important monographs on 19th-century Persian lithographed books have
recently been published:-
MARZOLPH,U. _Narrative illustration in Persian lithographed books_. Leiden:
Brill, 2001 (Handbook of Oriental Studies: Handbuch der Orientalistik,
I/60).
302pp. ISBN: 90-04-12100-5
SHCHEGLOVA,O.P. _Persoiazychnaia litografirovannaia kniga indiiskogo
proizvodstva (XIX v.)_. St Petersburg: Peterburgskoe Vostokovedenie, 2001.
300pp. + 29 plates. ISBN: 5-85803-158-7
The first concentrates on books printed in Iran, while the second is
concerned
with those from India, so they complement each other neatly. Both are
essential additions to the still rather scant literature on historical
bibliography in our field. They are also pioneering contributions to art
history, on the neglected genre of printed book illustration and
illumination.
