v2.c77.238

Enough has been said on the colours—Primary, Secondary as well as their Compounds, etc.—in the previous chapter. Here something about the styles of colours or clouring and of the patras and the kaṇṭakas is to be said. It is something quite unknown if there were also styles of Painting like those of Architecture or Sculpture. Aparājita-pracchā, however, has this distinction to propound this theme in at least three of its Sūtras (i.e. Chapters)—vide Sūtras Nos. 227-229.
