Early chapters describe prehistoric objects from 1.5 million years ago, examine artifacts from the Indus Civilization, and follow the emergence of Buddhism, Jainism, Hinduism, Sikhism, Islam, and Christianity. The collection outlines the rise of the Mughals, the greatest Muslim dynasty of India, who made India a leading economic power. The distinct Mughal style is traced through paintings, architecture, hardstone carving, metalwork, and jewelry. This volume also explores the early trade industry to Europe via examples of spice pots, textiles, and other luxury goods. Finally, modernism and political independence in the 20th century are examined through Indian culture such as popular prints, contemporary photography, and the performing arts.<\/p>\n<p>This volume presents a vast panoply, from the urban splendor of dynastic empires to the rural life of the subcontinent. A compelling visual history of rich and diverse cultures, this book will inspire and inform anyone interested in India and material culture.<\/p>\n<p> c. 500 illustrations    <\/p>\n<p> Publisher                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    Thames &#038; Hudson (September 27, 2022)   <br \/> Language                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    English   <br \/> Hardcover                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    320 pages   <br \/> ISBN-10                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    0500480648   <br \/> ISBN-13                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    978-0500480649   <br \/> Item Weight                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    2.31 pounds   <br \/> Dimensions                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    7.2 x 1.5 x 9.8 inches   <\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> An authoritative visual history of India, one of the world\u2019s oldest and most vibrant cultures, drawing on South Asian art and artifacts from prehistory to the present.
