This rich treasury of India's religious iconography was assembled from the work of one of the 19th-century's leading scholars. Its 300 captioned illustrations feature dramatic engravings and line drawings, including scenes from the Ramayana and Mahabharata as well as temple images of Krishna, Vishnu, Siva, and other major deities. Many of the illustrations are derived from bronze figurines; others are reproduced from manuscript illustrations. < br>
