Untitled [A set of 2 Books on F N Souza]
a) Edwin Mullins, F N Souza: An Introduction , London: Anthony Blond Ltd., 1962 108 pages illustrated with 66 full-page colour & black-and-white plates and 24 line drawings; full grey cloth bound with black title on the front cover and spine with dust jacket. 9.25 x 8.5 in (23.5 x 21.5 cm) The first comprehensive monograph on Francis Newton Souza, written by British art critic Edwin Mullins, published at a time when Souza was establishing himself as a powerful voice in post-war British and modern Indian art. This publication provides critical analysis of Souza’s early influences, his role in founding the Progressive Artists’ Group in Bombay, and his later works produced in London. The volume is illustrated with numerous black-and-white plates reproducing the artist’s paintings, drawings, and sketches, offering visual insight into Souza’s evolving style—marked by expressive figuration, eroticism, and religious iconography. The essay extends to 45 pages, and there is a 3-page list of collectors at the end.

The Reasoning Vision: Jehangir Sabavala‘s Painterly Universe
Dilip Chitre, The Reasoning Vision: Jehangir Sabavala's Painterly Universe , New Delhi: Tata McGraw-Hill Publishing, 1980 72 pages with 44 plates and a tipped-in frontispiece; original hardback with fine dust jacket 13.25 x 10.75 in (34 x 27 cm) A landmark monograph on the distinguished Indian modernist Jehangir Sabavala, authored by renowned poet and critic Dilip Chitre. The Reasoning Vision is both a scholarly and poetic exploration of Sabavala’s contemplative, structured, and luminous painterly universe. It situates his practice within the larger currents of 20th-century modernism while also acknowledging his distinct aesthetic rooted in solitude, order, and light. Lavishly illustrated with full-page colour reproductions, preparatory sketches, and archival images, the book also includes detailed commentary on Sabavala’s artistic techniques, thematic concerns, and philosophical underpinnings. Now out of print, this is the first and most authoritative critical study on Sabavala. A foundational reference for collectors and scholars of Indian modern art.
