Paintings of Rabindranath Tagore
Edited by R Siva Kumar
Rabindranath Tagore (1861–1941) is one of India’s best
known cultural icons. He was an influential national figure
of India, whose genius has transcended boundaries. Besides
being a poet, he was a novelist, a writer of short stories and
plays, a composer of songs, an essayist, and a philosopher.
Painting was the last art form to enter his rich creative life.
In mid-20th century, Rabindranath was the first Indian artist
to be extensively exhibited in the west.
This publication is produced in conjunction with three
travelling exhibitions of Rabindranath Tagore’s paintings,
organized as part of India’s National Commemoration of
150th Birth Anniversary of Rabindranath Tagore, by the
Ministry of Culture, Government of India. The exhibitions
are travelling to eight cities across the world. Along with
over 200 works by Rabindranath, this unique volume brings
together essays by leading scholars from around the world,
which lend insight into Rabindranath Tagore as a painter as
well as locate his paintings within the larger framework of
his multifaceted creative work.
R Siva Kumar is an art historian and curator. He is
Professor of Art History at Visva-Bharati in Santiniketan.
He has written extensively on modern Indian Art and is
the author of more than ten books.

A RT
Master Painters of India 1100–1900
John Guy and Jorrit Britschgi
This vividly illustrated publication features 110 works by many
of the most eminent painters in the history of Indian art.
These remarkable paintings, dating from 1100 to 1900, were
selected according to identifiable artists, and they refute the
long-held view of anonymous authorship in Indian art.
Traditionally, Indian paintings have been classified by regional
styles or dynastic periods, with an emphasis on subject
matter. Stressing the combined tools of connoisseurship and
inscriptional evidence, the pioneering research reflected in
this book has identified 40 individual artists and their oeuvres
through the analysis of style.
The introductory essay outlines the origins of early Indian
painting of the first millennium, which set the scene for the
development of the art of the book. The sections that follow
examine manuscript painting as it evolved from palm-leaf to
paper, the emergence of traditional painting as an independent
art form, and its demise with the coming of photography.
Biographies of the artists and a glossary of their major literary
sources provide valuable context.
The book is a companion volume to the exhibition on
display at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, from
September 2011 to January 2012, prior to which it was at
Museum Rietberg.

Paintings for the Mughal Court
Milo Cleveland Beach
Books have been treasured for centuries in the Islamic
world, as precious objects worthy of royal admiration. This
was especially true in Muslim India, where generations of
Mughal emperors commissioned and collected volumes
of richly illuminated manuscripts and lavishly illustrated
folios. They assembled workshops of the leading artists and
calligraphers to produce the books that filled their extensive
libraries. Today, those works remain a vibrant part of India’s
cultural and artistic history in the sixteenth and seventeenth
centuries.
In this revised and expanded edition of his popular 1981
book, Dr Milo Beach presents the superb collection of
Mughal painting in the Freer Gallery of Art. He adds many
of the outstanding works that entered the collection with
the opening of the Arthur M. Sackler Gallery in 1987.
Together, the Freer and Sackler Galleries, the Smithsonian’s
museums of Asian art, have the distinction of being one of the
world’s leading repositories of Mughal art. An introductory
essay examines the Mughal art of the book and traces the
contributions of a succession of rulers in Muslim India. Brief
artist biographies and an extensive bibliography complete
this updated volume.
Milo Cleveland Beach, a museum director, teacher, and
scholar of Indian painting, has written, lectured, and
organized exhibitions internationally on paintings from
Rajasthan and the Mughal court.

6. Kalighat Paintings
A RT
Edited by Suhashini Sinha and Professor C Panda
Kalighat painting evolved as a unique painting style in
the rapidly urbanizing cityscape of 19th-century Kolkata.
Reflecting a new language, these paintings recorded the changes
in lifestyles, values, and a new visual vocabulary brought forth
by lithographic presses and studio photography.
The artists who developed the Kalighat painting style were
traditional scroll painters (patuas). In catering to the transient,
urban populace, the artists let go of their linear narrative
styles and adopted single pictures with one or two figures.
The traditionally inherited techniques and iconography were
blended with the use of watercolours and western academic
shading, to show frames of a changing society.
This volume accompanies the touring ‘Kalighat Paintings’
exhibition organized by the Victoria and Albert Museum,
London in collaboration with the Victoria Memorial Hall,
Kolkata in late 2011. The V&A, London holds the single
largest collection of Kalighat paintings, and this is the first
exhibition of the collection in India. Best examples from the
two collections, and also contemporary Kalighat paintings
are illustrated in this book. Supporting essays reveal the
importance of these collections, highlight the era in which
this painting thrived, and the techniques that were used by
the artists.
Suhashini Sinha is Assistant Curator at the V&A,
London. Prof. C Panda is Secretary and Curator of
Victoria Memorial Hall, Kolkata.

and Other Stories
Ratna Rao Shekar
Thirteen stories that are vignettes of life: of men and women
who love, dream, and more importantly, who move with the
natural ebb of life. Can someone you met on a transatlantic
flight be your soul mate? why is it that two people fail to
connect in any meaningful way despite their best intentions
and efforts? How can a young boy come to terms with the
fact that his dead father is never going to come back? what of
the ailing man who can’t stop thinking of the young girl who
was a part of his youthful fantasy? How does a conservatively
brought-up Indian girl living in Manhattan deal with a live-
in partner? These and other refreshing stories from this
debut collection explore the finer aspects of love, longing,
regrets of failed connections, in ways that the reader will
identify with.
Set in different cities and towns across the country and across
countries, these are journeys of relationships, migrations,
and anticipation. with engaging moments drawn from
memories and fantasies, the stories try to make sense of past
and present, of cultural roots and the demands of modern
life, and of the passage of time when you want to keep it
within grasp.
Ratna Rao Shekar is the Editor of Housecalls and Wow!
Hyderabad magazines, both of which she helped found.
Ratna has written for publications in India and abroad
on subjects as varied as art and heritage, and she has

Vikramāditya Prakāsh
A renaissance man of Indian modernism, Aditya Prakash

works, along with lavish illustrations of a portfolio of select
works.

10. The Relationship between Science and Art
NON FICT ION
Pushpa Mittra Bhargava and Chandana Chakrabarti
Science and art are both manifestations of beauty and
creativity. Both are related to nature and are products of
evolution. Understanding natural phenomena and the
appreciation of beauty has conferred an evolutionary
advantage to the human species. As mankind has evolved
intellectually and socially and as science has progressed,
artistic creations by humans have tended towards increasing
harmony with nature and they have become more abstract—
like mathematics, which is the abstraction of all sciences. The
authors of this unusual work postulate some critical ideas on
science, art and aesthetics, and establish that we need both,
a scientific temper and the temper of art.
Evidence to support these theses is drawn from mathematics,
physics, studies in molecular biology, and also from music,
fine art and design. Readers are taken through lucid prose
with the help of illustrations of natural phenomenon such as
spiral galaxies, spider web, the Fibonacci series and fractals
in lightning, and of products of human creativity such as
paintings of masters like Picasso, Husain and Escher, musical
pieces, textile fragments and Ajanta caves frescoes.
Pushpa Mittra Bhargava is among India’s most
reputed scientists. He is also a writer, thinker, institution
builder and consultant and is widely regarded as the
architect of modern biology and molecular biology in
India. Chandana Chakrabarti is a communications
expert, columnist and writer, whose writings have
covered a variety of fields and issues.
