Study of Jaina sculptures and paintings in UK Museums

Professor, Department of History of Art, Banaras Hindu University

Several new ideas and materials which emerged through the research in the UK collections helped me in my future researches. The award widened my knowledge and mental horizons.

I subsequently published a book on Medieval Indian iconography and also an article entitled "Jaina sculpture and paintings in the United Kingdom" in Kala, Vol III, 1996-1997, pp. 40-51.
