Princely Pursuits: Indian Miniature Paintings

Six of the Indian illuminated manuscript pages in the Toledo Museum of Art collection were acquired in the 1920s by George W. Stevens, a noted bibliophile, or in his memory. They represent the Mughal,Deccan, Rajasthani, and Lucknow schools of painting and date from the 16th to the 19th centuries. The seventh page is a new accession, a 17th-century painting attributed to the Rajasthani painter Manohar that depicts scenes from the childhood of Krishna.
