Garden & Cosmos: The Royal Paintings of Jodhpur

In this sumptuous volume the authors present new scholarship that bears broadly on north Indian court art by examining how the artists created subjects new to court painting and how they represented definitive spaces by closely observing architecture or citing images from maps and town plans. The metaphysics and later political history of the Nath Sampraday order that inspired the dramatic stylistic break in 19th century Jodhpur painting are a second focus of this study.
