Synopsis
This vividly illustrated publication features 110 works by many of the most eminent painters in the history of Indian art. These remarkable paintings, dating from 1100 to 1900, were selected according to identifiable artists, and they refute the long-held view of anonymous authorship in Indian art. Traditionally, Indian paintings have been classified by regional styles or dynastic periods, with an emphasis on subject matter. Stressing the combined tools of connoisseurship and inscriptional evidence, the pioneering research reflected in this book has identified individual artists and their oeuvres through the analysis of style. The introductory essay outlines the origins of early Indian painting of the first millennium, which set the scene for the development of the art of the book. The sections that follow examine manuscript painting as it evolved from palm-leaf to paper, the emergence of traditional painting as an independent art form, and its demise with the coming of photography. Biographies of the artists whose works appear in this volume and a glossary of their major literary sources provide valuable context., Dispelling the long-held view of the anonymity of Indian artists, this fascinating publication identifies over forty painters of masterpieces spanning eight centuries, This vividly illustrated publication features 110 works by many of the most eminent painters in the history of Indian art.

    1st time buying from this seller. I will go go with Positive because there was only 1 GLARING Negative. I would consider buying from again only if I was assured that negative was fixed. The miniatures are a Value. The Miniatures are exactly as described. The miniatures were shipped in a box but painted vintage lead miniatures were 10 to a bag dinking around with some bubble wrap on the outside of the bag. I can only assume this seller has never shipped a miniature before

    Was packaged really well and protected with a good layer of bubble wrap and air pocket packaging. Item arrived in great condition with only a small bit of the box bent a bit (no fault of the seller just how things go with shipping and items like this). The price was very close to the original msrp which is why I immediately jumped on buying it. In terms of quality, everything in the box is in good shape and I wouldn’t hold seller to that anyway. Overall would definitely recommend this seller.
