About Book
The little-known paintings to which this volume serves as a catalogue once belonged to the Sarabhai family. The works collected by the Sarabhais reflect great discrimination and aesthetic sensibility. This remarkable collection offers a well-rounded view of the broad historical development of Indian painting. There are works here that come from as early as the 11th century and as late as the 19th; small Pala works on palm-leaf jostle against some of the earliest works done on paper when that material came into use; Mughal works like those from some of the most celebrated series like the Hamza Nama or the Padshahnama stand close to dazzling folios from the so-called 'Palam' Bhagavata; and, the painter Chokha of Deogarh figures in the collection as much as the great Nainsukh of Guler does.
