After describing the artistic heritage of the ancient cities of Harappā and Mohenjo-Daro, Dr. Rowland traces the artistic story of the civilizations that followed through fifty centuries. He pays special attention to the influence of religion on the history of architecture, sculpture, and painting in India and the surrounding countries from their prehistoric beginnings until the introduction of European influences in recent centuries. – From publisher's description.
