The Body Adorned

The sensuous human form—elegant and eye-catching—is the dominant feature of premodern Indian art. Praise: "An important work for anyone interested in Indian art or religion...Highly recommended." — Choice “The rich adornment of the human body is everywhere in Indian culture—and nowhere in Indian scholarship. Vidya Dehejia has finally addressed this deficiency with a perceptive and illuminating book sure to be of interest to students of literature no less than art history.” —Sheldon Pollock, Columbia University
