About the Book
This unique volume explores the intersection of classical Indian music and visual arts, specifically through the depiction of ragas in the form of ragachitraas (raga paintings). It combines theoretical analysis of classical music with an iconographic and aesthetic examination of two significant sets of ragachitra folios: one from the Gem Palace Collection at the National Museum (New Delhi) and the other from Bharat Kala Bhavan (Varanasi).
The book includes a comprehensive survey of primary sources, such as musicological and iconographical treatises, offering a detailed analysis of how music is represented visually in Indian art. It provides scholars, musicians, and art enthusiasts with a deeper understanding of the symphony between music and visual art in India.
