This work is unencumbered by ethnography.  It serves as a valuable introduction to what is called at the IGNCA, 'Loka Parampara --Peoples Tradition'.  As a picture book it is an art-work of a very high quality and as a descriptive material it is a new and fresh exposition of Rabari lifestyle.

 
FRANCESCO D'ORAZI FLAVONI,  an Italian Diplomat and a sensitie photographer.  His photographs bear testimony to the beauty and dignity of the Rabaris.  he has made tryst with this fascinating community.  Of hundred pictures there are several masterpieces which speak highly of the artist.  His genius for transposing visual impression of a photographer into words and thoughts of a scholar is reflected best in the descriptions written with enormous artistic sensitivity.
