MASTERPIECES OF INDIAN ART (Roli, Rs 1,975) collected by Alka Pande is another reminder of the wonder that was India. There?s a touch of irony though. Most of the sculptures, miniatures and textiles presented here are no longer in India. They have been painstakingly assembled from galleries and museums all over the world, but mostly from Britain, America and Europe. Pande pleads that the selection is ?subjective? and may not conform with the more popular list of ?masterpieces?. The regulars are there, however, like the Ajanta-Ellora paintings and the Chola sculptures. This 18th-century miniature, Chira haran, has also been seen before. There are also rare ones like the 11th-century map shawl from Kashmir and the miniature depicting the killing of Adham Khan. But in all, another addition to the innumerable coffee-tablers on Indian art.
