The most circumstantial information regarding the Indian schools of fine art, previous to the Mogul times, is that given by Târanâth, a Tibetan Lama, who wrote a history of Buddhism in A.D. 1608. The last chapter, relating to sculpture and painting, has been translated by Mr. W. T. Heeley, C.S., in the "Indian Antiquary," vol. iv., p. 101. It gives many important landmarks in Indian art-history.
