c5.5

I have always believed that Western Indian painting was not an individual phenomenon confined to Rājputānā and Gujarāt but a part of the common art movement in medieval India. I have tried to show from the wall-paintings from Mālwā, the Deccan, Southern India and Pagan that they were inspired with a linear conception which was probably of Western Indian origin.
