About Indian Miniature Art An illustration to the Bhagavata Purana King Janaka greets Balarama ca 1750
Depicting Krishna and Balarama twice, once atop the mountain and again leaving at lower right, pursued by the king's army who set fire to the mountain, smoke rising above and animals showing fleeing to the right, richly detailed and surrounded by red borders. The tradition of Indian miniature painting finds its beginnings around the 7th century ACE. Appearing as text illustrations, these paintings emerged primarily in Jain and Buddhist palm leaf manuscripts. Reaching a high level of sophistication in the 15th century, the style grew steadily, sustaining its similarity with other schools of miniature painting while articulating a unique aesthetics of its own. The schools of miniature painting consist of two broad variants – the first centred on Islamic elements unique to Iran and Turkey, and the second an indigenous tradition of India.About the Posters
