It requires not only a deep knowledge of art and architecture, but of widely dispersed literatures both secular and religious. Images are mute spectators of the past ages. Their fine craftsmanship, beauty and polish convey much more than their values. To identify architectural remains is also a difficult task. India is very rich in both the fields. Art historians have tried their best to identify all the excavated and explored remains of not only our country but findings of other Asian countries too. Apart from Gandhara, Mathura, Sarnath, Amaravati and Magadha Schools of art some new centres of art like Kausambi, Kurkihara, Nalanda, Sirpur, Akota etc. have also made attention of the art historians. Indian art has not only covered the territory of India but its influence is also noticed on other Asian countries like Nepal, Tibet, Indonesia, and Sri Lanka etc. Art historians like A.K.Coomaraswamy, Debjani Pal, Pratapaditya Pal, K, Krishnamurti, N. J. Krom, Stella Kramrisch, A.J.B. Kempers, Debala Mitra, S.L Huntington, F.B. Havel, M. Hallade, A. Grunwedel, A. K.Gordon, A. Getty, C.P.Fitzerald, G.C. Chauley, Lokesh Chandra, Percy Brown, N.K.Bhattasali, and many more have done a great job in this field and their works are path-finder for the new generation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ccenter\u003e\u003cb\u003ePreface\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e \u003cp xss=\"removed\"\u003e Art and Architecture, especially which are related to Buddhism has always fascinated me. In this book I have tried my best to cover all the aspects of Brahmanic and Buddhist art and architecture. Among eighteen topics of this book five topics are based upon the archaeological investigations done by the author himself in Bihar and UP. I have given some archaeological data supported by illustrations to make attention of art historians to rethink about the art form developed in the region of Nalanda. I have also tried to compare and find out the impact of Hindu iconography on Buddhist sculptures. Focus was also given on the art and architecture of Nepal, Tibet, China, Myanmar and Sri Lanka. Definition of a few technical terms used in the book is also given in the glossary. In this way the book gives a holistic vision on Brahmanic and Buddhist art and architecture of Asian countries. Hope the book will be beneficial for the students and art lovers. G.K.
