Looking Beyond: Graphics of Satyajit Ray provides an overview of the immense body of work that constitutes
renowned Indian filmmaker Satyajit Ray’s graphic designs. A consummate artist from his early years, Ray designed
more than 5,500 book covers, posters, advertisement layouts, and film titles. The book tries to delve into the depths
of the artist’s psyche to recreate the magic of a wonderful genius in both images and words.
Ray is one of the few filmmakers in the world to have not just directed films but also created immortal musical
