註釋
ART OF MITHILA—Of all art-styles of the Indian subcontinent, the art of Mithila (indigenous to the cross-border area of Bihar, India and Nepal) is one of the most popular and endearing-with its distinctive and individualized cartoonish figures. The art of Mithila has enjoyed a recent revival and many Mathili women have been encouraged to express themselves in this medium which traditionally adorns their stucco homes. The Art of Mithila by Dr. Srivastava is a comprehensive study on Mithila art from the earliest times from a historic and cultural perspective. The book is devoted exclusively to the analysis in detail of different aspects of the Art of Mithila and its position in Indian art. There is also a selected bibliography and a useful index. The Art of Mithila should be of interest to anyone-layman or art student-who appreciates Mithila art and would like to gain a further insight.
