It describes, too, the characteristics of the different regional styles, the relationship between patrons and painters, the milieu in which they created their works and the tools and techniques the painters used.The second part of this book consists of ‘Close Encounters with 101 Great Works'. Carefully selected by Prof. Goswamy and spanning nearly a thousand years, these works range from Jain manuscripts and Rajasthani, Mughal, Pahari and Deccani miniatures, to Company School paintings. His description and analysis of these works unlock the treasures that lie within them and show us how to ‘read' each painting, as he points out its finest features, explains its visual vocabulary and symbolism and recounts the story, legend or event that inspired it.
