India history and geography
Source: Knowledge Traditions & Practices of India: Painting: A Survey (h)Gond refers to an ancient Indian style of painting.—Painting like most Indian art reflects the religious passion of the people, their joys and aspirations. It is also a documentation of the life and times, of kings and courts, nature, plants and animals. It is a celebration of colour, of festivals and all that is beautiful. India’s heritage of painting (e.g., the Gond style) is a record of happy times and happy people who expressed their hopes and faith through their works of art.
The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages. Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.
