Jain Miniature Paintings from Western India c6.283

- **Language:** English

### [c6.283](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.chandra-1949.c6.283)

To the same period belong miniatures in another manuscript of the \*Kalpasūtra\* in the Hemachandrāchārya Jñāna Mandir, Pāṭan, two of which we reproduce here (Figs. 87-88). The first represents Indra seated in all his glory, ordering Harinaigamesa to remove the foetus of Devānandā, and the second represents Triśalā with her attendants. The back-ground is red and the figures are painted in gold, their costume is in blue or crimson. The drawing is careful and shows a certain decorative charm.
