1st Edition Copy of "The Art of Kantha Embroidery" by Niaz Zaman from 1981.

Niaz Zaman is a distinguished Bangladeshi academic, writer, and editor, renowned for her contributions to literature and cultural studies. She has authored several works focusing on Bangladeshi art and crafts, with a particular emphasis on traditional embroidery techniques.

One of her notable publications is The Art of Kantha Embroidery, first published in 1981 by The University Press Limited.  This comprehensive book delves into the history, techniques, and cultural significance of Kantha embroidery, a traditional craft from Bengal. Through detailed analyses and illustrations, Zaman documents various stitches, motifs, border patterns, and styles associated with Kantha. The book also provides insights into the lives of rural Bangladeshi women who practice this art form, highlighting its role in their daily lives and cultural expression. 

For those interested in traditional textile arts, The Art of Kantha Embroidery remains a valuable resource, offering both technical guidance and cultural context for this enduring craft.

Likewise, this book has been a guiding light and a source of inspiration for Dacca to navigate and explore the parts of this traditional craft.
