Description: The art of miniature painting in India blossomed in the 11th century with Buddhist icons painted on palm leaves and evolved to one of the finest outgrowths of Persian miniature style under the conquering Mogul emperors of the 16th century. It then became the main pictorial art form of portraits, court scenes and mythological legends for display in their royal albums.As one of the most recent art discoveries in the West, these Indian miniatures, painted in the gouache medium of ground vegetable and mineral dyes and sometimes embellished with gold leaf (like this one), have been a continuous source of fascination for Western scholars and art collectors!
