OverviewThis publication considers Northern Indian terracottas from the third century BC to the first century AD. It was in these four centuries that, in the most literal sense of the word, the earth was prepared to form the necessary basis for the Buddhist, Brahmanic and Jain iconography for centuries to come. This survey introduces mainly complete figurines and plaques, rather than fragments. These should provide an insight into the refined art of the earlier Indian terracottas which until recently were considered more as pieces of ethnographic interest or folk art rather than art objects in their own right.
