In
India, art has been intimately tied to religion for more than 2,000
years. As the birthplace of three important religions-Hinduism,
Buddhism and Jainism-India has produced a sculptural legacy that
embodies the beliefs of millions of the world's people. The country
is vast, with a great range of cultures, climates and terrain. This
diversity has provided fertile ground for a rich variety of artistic
traditions, some of which are reflected within this gallery.
