Excerpt from Ideals of Indian Art Indian Art has now obtained a far wider te cognition and a fuller understanding than it had when the first edition of Ideals of Indian Art was published. If it has not yet become a sub ject Of general interest for the public, it is now treated more or less respectfully by our national museums: several able Indian writers have made valuable contributions to it, and European art critics, who before avoided it Or gave it scant consideration, have become its appreciative ex ponents. I have not, however, foimd it necessary to revise the passages in this book which relate to Opinions current at the time-when it was first published, as my readers can easily mark the differences between then and now for them selves. Except for a few necessary corrections and additional notes the text remains unaltered. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Indian Painting Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true. Whatsoever things are honourable, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. No section of the population of India can afford to neglect her ancient heritage. In her literature, philosophy, art, and regulated life there is much that is worthless, much also that is distinctly unhealthy; yet the treasures of knowledge, wisdom, and beauty which they contain are too precious to be lost. Every citizen Of India needs to use them, if he is to be a cultured modern Indian. This is as true Of the Christian, the Muslim, the Zoroastrian as of the Hindu. But, while the heritage of India has been largely explored by scholars, and the results of their toil are laid out for us in their books, they cannot be said to be really available for the ordinary man. The volumes are in most cases expensive, and are often technical and difficult. Hence this series of cheap books has been planned by a group of Christian men, in order that every educated Indian, Whether rich or poor, may be able to find his way into the treasures of India's past. Many Europeans, both in India and elsewhere, will doubtless be glad to use the series. The utmost care is being taken by the General Editors in selecting writers, and in passing manuscripts for the press. TO every book two tests are rigidly applied: every thing must be scholarly, and everything must be sympathetic. The purpose is to bring the best out of the ancient treasuries, so that it may be known, enjoyed, and used.

Excerpt from A Hand-Book of Indian Products: Art-Manufactures and Raw Materials The Hon'ble Colonel S. T. Trevor, R.E., Vice-President of the Calcutta International Exhibition, while inspecting my collection of Indian Raw Produce, expressed a wish that a short description of the articles should be placed within the reach of the visitors at the above Exhibition. This little work is the result of that wish. In the course of my official work, I have often had occasion to find that the general public greatly feel the want of a Hand-book of information relating to the products of India as a whole, a sort of index to the many valuable works contributed by eminent authors, but most of which relate to a particular portion of the country or a particular branch of the subject. The labours of Roxburgh, Balfour, Hooker, Drury, Royle, Brandis, Gamble, Stewart, Birdwood, Baden-Powell, Bidie, Kipling, Murray, Watson, Hunter, Atkinson, Liotard, Kanny Loll Dey, Udai Chand Dutt and many other well-known experts on Indian manufactures and raw products have done much towards informing the European nations about the developed and undeveloped resources of India, but, as I have just remarked, the valuable information collected by these able writers either relates to particular branches of the subject, or is mixed up with geographical, historical and other matters, or is contained in works too voluminous to form a key for casual enquirers, rapid tourists or busy merchants. In the latter parti of the last year, therefore, I made an attempt to supply this want, and brought out a "Rough List of Indian Art-ware," which was so well received by the public that a second edition of it was required within three months after the first edition was published. In the beginning of the present year I took up the economic produce, and commenced a dictionary of raw materials.

Excerpt from The Industrial Arts of India, Vol. 1 of 2 Part II, on The Master Handicrafts of India, is a reprint, with added text, of a portion of my Handbook to tlze Indian Court at the Paris International Exhibition of 1878. It was so well received, both on the Continent and in this country by people interested in the minor arts of India, thati resolved to publish a carefully rewritten edition of it for general sale. I began by adding to it copious notes from the annual Administration Reports of the local governments of India; and I had examined all these reports, and all the provincial Gazetteers as yet published, when I was asked in the early part of this year to write a popular handbook on the industrial arts of India, in connexion with the reopening of the India Museum under its new administration by, the Science and Art Depart ment at South Kensington. In undertaking this task my intention was to write such a short sketch as I have given of the Hindu Pantheon, without some knowledge of which half the interest of the manual arts of India is lost and to add a few general observations on the artis tic character of Indian manufactures. But on examining the india'museum collections in detail, and finding how incomplete they were for a systematic representation of the manufacturing resources of India, I saw that what was most wanted was not a handbook to the contents of theeiuseum, but an index to its deficiencies; and I therefore resolved to virtually republish a portion of my Handbook, with new information, as the second part of the present work. Although its preparation has been hurried - (the Science and Art Department received charge ofthe Museum'only on the Ist of January lastj - I hope that it IS a fairly trustworthy index of every district and town 111 British India where manufactures of any specialartistic quality are produced; and I believe it will prove of some assistance to the oofficials of the Science and Art Department in completing the India Museum collections, and to the general public as a guide to the places in India where they may obtain objects of genuine native art.

Excerpt from The Arts and Crafts of India and Ceylon That the work is divided into two parts, the first concerned with Hindu and Buddhist art, the latter with the Musulman arts, is solely to facilitate an un derstanding of their historical relations and psycho logical development: I do not forget that in almost every art and craft, as also in music, there exists in Hindustan a complete and friendly fusion of the two cultures. The non-sectarian character of the styles of Indian art has indeed always been conspicuous; so that it is often only by special details that one can distinguishjain from Buddhist st pas, Buddhist from Hindu sculpture, or the Hindu from the Musulmz'm minor crafts. The one great distinction of Mughal from Hindu art is not so much racial as social; the former is an art of courts and connoisseurs, owing much to individual patronage, the latter belongs as' much to the folk as to the kings.

Excerpt from The A B C of Indian Art The Old arts and manufactures of India deserve much higher appreciation than we have hitherto bestowed upon them. It may appear almost incredible that we Should have remained ignorant until quite recent times Of the existence of many Of these arts, and of the perfection to which others had been brought among that wonderful people Of the East whom many of us had been in the habit of regarding as little better than barbarians, for getting that they were civilised just as early as were the nations Of Egypt and Persia. The physical features Of their country favoured early civilisation. Great plains, guarded by giant mountains, watered by magnificent rivers, furnished fertile soil from which abundance of food could be secured in a climate favourable to its production. The country was rich in metallic treasures. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Essays on Indian Art, Industry Education The various Essays on Indian Art, Industry, and Education which are here reprinted, though mostly written some years ago, all deal with questions which continue to possess aliving interest. The superstitions which they attempt to dispel still loom largely in popular imagination, and the reforms they advocate still remain to be carried out. Only last year Sir Henry Craik, M. P., in his book on India, revived the familiar anglo-indian legend that the Taj Mahal was the creation of a European architect. Hardly any serious attempt has been made in the last twenty-five years to make the departmental machinery of Govern ment effective for the revival of Indian art and handi craft. Of'ficialism in the Calcutta University has lately barred the way to further progress in art education over-riding the deliberate vote of the majority of 'the members of the Senate. Swadeshi politicians, with regard to India's industrial problems, have been content to follow behind commercial Europe, and multiply the evils which the factory system has already inflicted upon India.
