<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>A concise introduction to the MFA Boston's celebrated collection of South Asian art</strong></p><p>The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, is home to an important collection of artworks from South Asia that spans a large geographical area--comprising India and the countries that surround it--and more than four millennia. Among these objects are expressive figures in bronze and stone, dazzlingly intricate miniature paintings, luxury textiles and exquisite metalwork. <p/>Arranged thematically around dualities of art and craft, sacred and secular, Hindu and Muslim, real and ideal, male and female, and local and foreign--reflecting and challenging the dualistic thinking often applied to South Asian art--the works gathered in this volume reveal the richness and depth of South Asian art and culture.</p>
