Let's get real. Buying art books first-hand isn't as affordable as say, works of fiction. That is why, art lovers such as myself get teary-eyed when an institution like the Metropolitan Museum of Art has five decades of its publications on art history available on its website to read and download for free. These titles aren't specific to the West; you've got books on Indian court painting, images of Mughal India and the sultans of the Deccan, for instance. The browsing experience is smooth, too. You can search through seven fields including publication type and thematic category.
