Description: Item Description Ravi Shankar is the world's foremost sitar-virtuoso and composer, the man christened by George Harrison as the 'Godfather of World Music', who spearheaded the international spread of Indian culture. He has a remarkable story to tell, and he brings to the task the same contrasting qualities that make him as uncommon a man as a musician: that mixture of charm and candour, of dignity and humility, of deep spirituality and wide-eyed, impish fun. Raga Mala features a remarkable collection of photographs and documents drawn almost entirely from the personal archives of Ravi Shankar and George Harrison. A large number of these have never been published before. Classically elegant in design and presented to the very highest of standards, it is a beautiful record of an extraordinary life. The book is bound in blue Bangalore raw silk specially created for this book, with gilt hand-tooling and gilded page edging, and it comes in a silk-screened slipcase blocked in gold leaf. Included is a numbered and stamped photographic print. This copy is No. 1,312 of 2,000 limited edition copies, all of which are signed by Ravi Shankar. The book comes in the original mailing box. The condition of the print is near mint. The condition of the slipcase is excellent. The condition of the book is excellent.
