Description

In this work, Anthony Gilbert explores the poetry, art and music of India. Medieval Indian poets wrote collections of Regamalas which in later centuries inspired paintings. Gilbert has taken the Raga Asavari, often associated with spring, the poetry it evoked and a number of the beautiful miniature paintings to create this work with ghosts of Indian techniques.
