This meticulously researched, beautifully written, and sumptuously illustrated catalogue of Deccani paintings, drawings, and manuscripts in the Jagdish and Kamla Mittal Museum of Indian Art in Hyderabad is certain to become a landmark in the study of Indian miniature painting. By far the most comprehensive publication on painting in the Deccan, a region that spans south-central India, it provides sensitive analyses of 104 exquisite paintings, drawings, and manuscripts collected over six decades by Jagdish and Kamla Mittal, a husband-and-wife team of artist-connoisseurs residing in Hyderabad.
