• This influential work by E. B. Havell explores the richness of Indian art and its deep spiritual and philosophical underpinnings, offering a counter-narrative to Western interpretations.
• Havell challenges the colonial notion that Indian art lacked realism and technique, instead emphasizing its symbolic depth and metaphysical intent.
• The book covers a range of subjects including temple architecture, sculpture, painting, and aesthetic theory in ancient and medieval India.
• Richly illustrated, it presents visual support to Havell’s arguments and gives readers direct engagement with the artworks discussed.
• As an art historian and former principal of the Government School of Art in Calcutta, Havell’s insights are both scholarly and firsthand.
• The book remains a foundational text in the study of Indian art history and aesthetics.
