This book offers a view of a wide array of Indian art. It highlights examples of design, workmanship and craft in sculptures of metal, stone and wood as well as paintings and textiles. The book opens with an introduction asking 'What is Indian art?' This is followed by a series of chapters showing how the functions and purposes of each object reflect its cultural context and determine the choice of image. -- Dust Jacket.
