Gallery information:
These plates originate from the book "Vaishnava Iconology in Nepal" by Pratapaditya Pal which represents a study of both Vaishnava religion and art in Nepal in a historical perspective. The primary source consists of images or icons portraying Vaishnava themes, but both epigraphical and literary materials have been used to reconstruct the history of the religion as well as to interpret the icons discussed.
