The volume is a detailed discussion of the history of Indian and Ceylonese art during ancient, medieval, and modern times. The book is the result of the development of the study of Indian art and archaeology during the nineteenth and early twentieth century India. This work starts from the Indus Valley Civilization, followed by Mauryan, Gupta, Buddhist, Hindu, and the influence of Greek and Roman traditions in Indian art. The author of this book also covers themes, such as cave art, sculptural traditions, and building architecture in ancient Mathura, Amravati, and the entire South India till Ceylon. Moreover, this book covers art from Central Asia, Java, Tibet, and Nepal. This volume also covers the impact of Islamic architecture, which was borrowed from Arabia, Persia, and Central Asia. A special section on Indo-Islamic architecture, prevalent in tile works, calligraphies, lattices, inlay mosaics, numismatics, and sculptures, is also covered in this volume.
