Bemerkung:

Leicht vergilbt. - The catalogue is divided into two sections. The first is a reference section in which the function, history and salient features of Indian painting and sculpture are summarized. The two stylistic glossaries outline the chronological and geographical divisions. The second section follows the thematic structure of the exhibition moving from 'The Natural World' and 'The Abundance of Life' to 'The Four Goals of Life' and then to 'Devotion' and 'Enlightenment', and culminating in the 'Mythology of Vishnu and Shiva'.
