Rabindranath Tagore's paintings, books, sculptures to be available online -

Rabindranath Tagore's classics, paintings, sculptures and songs [in compact discs] are soon to be made available for sale at the click of the mouse. Also on offer through an e-commerce portal will be the premier publications of Visva Bharati University, founded by the poet in Santiniketan in 1921. The authorities are set to launch what they claim ``one of most ambitious e-commerce initiatives undertaken by any Central University.''

The portal, developed by a reputed information technology company and hosted at its website http://www.brainware-india.com will be linked to the university's official website http://www.visva-bharati.ac.in to facilitate access. The project aims at providing easy access to the university's wide range of products and publications to national and international buyers.

Initially books published by Visva Bharati — nearly 700 titles and about 500 titles of Tagore alone — will be available through the on-line store, university sources told The Hindu . Subsequently the product catalogue, complete with a price-list, will be upgraded to include Tagore's other works of art like songs, sculptures and nearly 2000 of his paintings. Also to be made available are personalised gift items specially designed by the university selected from a range of its private collections as well as those gifted to it. They include the Nobel laureate's letters, paintings and cassettes containing recordings of his voice.

Buyers will be able to select products of their choice from the online catalogue and add them to a virtual shopping cart. After checking out they will be required to make online payments through the payment gateway integrated with the portal that accepts both credit cards and net banking payments.
