Don Farber's Buddhist Life Photo Archive
Bodhisattva Trading Co., Inc., USA
Self-description:
"The archive contains many rare and unusual images, including those of endangered traditional
Buddhist cultures. There are portraits of masters, nuns, monks, and lay people, and images of monastic
life, spiritual practice, Buddhist arts, pilgrimage, and more. [...]
Please feel free to contact me regarding the use of images, to purchase prints, or to discuss
possible assignments -
Don Farber".
Site contents: A lengthy list of images of the
Buddhist World Heritage Sites; Buddhist Life in America; Buddhist
Life in India; Japanese Buddhist Life; Korean Buddhist Life;
Buddhist Life in Ladakh, India; Buddhist Life in Nepal; Thai
Buddhist Life; Tibetan buddhist Life; Vietnamese Buddhist Life in
Exile; Various Buddhist Subjects; Parliament of the World's
Religions; Other Asian Religions; Chinese Buddhist Life.
[A commercial site. Had it published thumbnail images of
archived photographs - the way splendid The Huntington
Archive of Buddhist and Related Art
(http://kaladarshan.arts.ohio-state.edu/) does - it would be a very
useful resource indeed. However, by publishing an indifferent text catalog,
the site ends up as yet another inconsequential brochureware - ed.]
