Silpa-Sri: Studies in Indian Art and Culture is a collection of twentyfive papers of Dr. A.L. Srivastava throwing light on various aspects of Indian art, namely the painting, sculpture, architecture, iconography, epigraphy, numismatics and ivory. Some of these papers are based on new discoveries compelling us to change our previous hypothesis. New interpretation are the central idea of some other papers. Identification of Sri-Laksmi and her various forms in Sanchi sculpture and the origin and development of Nandyavarta symbol deserve special attention of scholars. Welcome light has been thrown on the Pancangula in a panel of Bharhut, on the Ihamrgas in Sanchi sculpture and on A Bracket Salabhanjika from Jankhat near Kannauj (U.P). The book thus provides a glimpse of the glorious heritage of our art and culture.
