Sbi�S Heritage: Edifices And Beyond
The State Bank of India (SBI), the flagship of Indian banking, has not only pioneered but also shaped India�s banking sector. But what is unknown to most people is that SBI is also among the most prominent custodians of India�s heritage. During its journey of more than two centuries, it has created some of the most imposing edifices in India, with some hailing back to the late nineteenth century. Remarkably, only a few of these edifices have undergone major changes over the years, while most remain as they were. Every stone, they say, tells a story and so does every edifice. Some of these stories are true, others are mostly yarns passed on from one generation to another. SBI�s Living Heritage: Edifices and Beyond is a truly amazing visual documentation of these wonderful edifices and their stories. This book will make the past come alive with rare photographs and old documents from SBI�s archives as well as private collections, while beautifully capturing the present, in the case of SBI Chairman�s residence, Dunedin, through photographs by renowned photographer Amit Pasr icha. This book will not only arouse curiosity, but also stir memories.
