AbstractThis book focuses on the startlingly beautiful Buddhist Cave complex of Kizil, an important conduit in the transmission of Buddhist art and thought along the Silk Road from India to China. The work brings together the writings of eminent scholars who have studied the images of Kizil as well as artefacts and manuscripts in various institutions across the globe. The printed material on Kizil remains scattered in obscure publications in different languages. This volume includes the work of scholars whose contributions are not readily available in English.
