Indian painting for Europeans
Amazing recovery of paintings and painters adapting Mughal and traditional Indian forms to European scientific needs and artistic tastes during East India Company and British Raj eras. Academic yet quite accessible. Some astounding pieces in various genre ... and names we're now glad to know. Brilliant.

O encontro de culturas.
Excelente introdução à arte decorrente do encontro de culturas ocidental e indiana. Impressionante, ver obras de artistas excepcionais como desconhecidos pelo ocidente. Como vislumbrar o lado oculto da lua pela primeira vez.

Hold the past in your hands...
This book is a masterpiece, I just loved it! Lots of paintings dating back from East India Company's time. The paintings are elaborated and explained very well by the authors! It is not just a kind of catalogue but a hand held device for these magnificent and veiled paintings which could be deciphered by the same. William Dalrymple and other authors has worked really well in this. Hope you will enjoy!Thanks for reading :)Have an awesome day!
