The John C. and Susan L. Huntington Photographic Archive of Buddhist
and Related Art contains nearly 300,000 original color slides and
black and white and color photographs of art and architecture throughout
Asia. Countries covered in the collection include India, Afghanistan,
Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, China, Japan, Thailand, Indonesia,
and Myanmar (Burma). Works range from approximately 2500 B.C.E. to
the present, and documentation includes contemporary religious activities
in various parts of Asia. The Archive documents the art and architecture
of these countries in situ, as well as works of art found in most
major Asian, European, and American museums. This broad, yet detailed,
collection contains predominantly Buddhist material, but also includes
Hindu, Jain, Islamic, and other works. |
