George Michell

This stunning book analyzes the influences that constitute Mughal decoration-Central Asian inheritance, artistic practices of Persia, and rich indigenous traditions-and also examines the various materials and techniques through which the Mughals gave expression to their artistic impulses, drawing on the finest pieces of Mughal art in public and private collections in India, Europe, and the United States. All the dominating themes of Mughal art are identified and illustrated in brilliant photographs, including a series of dazzling gatefolds.
