Reviews

'What a fascinating book this is! India in Art in Ireland assembles a group of suggestive and incisive studies, richly illuminating this complex subject.' Mark Crinson, University of Manchester, UK 'India in Art in Ireland probes the complex intersections of Irish and Indian art, culture, politics, and history, providing readers with a sense of this rich engagement across time and geography. From the Chester Beatty Library collection of Indian paintings to the Hindu-Gothick Dromana Gate, and from Thomas Hickey's Portrait of a Bibi to Harry Clarke's stained glass The Eve of St. Agnes, the essays in this volume investigate often overlooked moments of contact to draw forth the fascinating, fraught, and incredibly productive aesthetic conversation between India and Ireland. The book promises to refocus our attention on these moments of intersection and engagement, enabling new assessments of the Irish-Indian encounter over the last three centuries and more.' Rebecca M. Brown, Johns Hopkins University, USA
