India history and geography
Source: Knowledge Traditions & Practices of India: Painting: A Survey (h)Mysore painting is another important legacy of classical Vijayanagara painting. The themes for most of these paintings are also Hindu deities and epic stories. With the help of a thin brush, all the jewellery and architectural features are painted over chalk paste, to give a slightly raised effect of carving, and then allowed to dry. A thin gold foil is pasted on this. The rest of the drawing is then painted using water colours..
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.
