Presents a preliminary glimpse into the world of Indian art during pre-modern times. This volume presents how 'art in India' and 'art in the western world' are different entities. It explains how art in the Indian context has been passed over to different generations and describes how the issues concerning mediocracy and peculiarity of artists, changes in art form owing to theological understanding, were espressed. Divided into 18 chapters, Coomaraswamy covers the history of India from the time of the Indus Valley Civilization. This book touches upon the arts based on different religions and kingdoms that ruled over the Indian subcontinent in ancient and medieval India. These include Aryan, Dravidian, Vedic, pre-Mauryan, Mauryan, Buddhist, post-Mauryan, Puranic Hinduism, Kushanas, Andhra, Gupta, Jaina, Rajputana, Indonesian, and other medieval era influences from both northern and southern parts of India. This volume will be of great interest to the scholars, researchers, and professors in Indian art, aesthetics, and history, as it is a prelude to the scholarly writing made in the Indian art tradition.
