Since some of the world's major religions such as Buddhism, Hinduism, and Islam originated or developed in India, much of Indian art is based on religious or political themes. Here we trace the history of Indian folk paintings, architecture, and sculpture, explaining how each evolved from the socio-political influences that reflect the era from which they emerged.
Each style of painting that emerged in India represents traditions, customs and ideologies handed down from previous generations. Although early paintings were on walls or as murals, the art form eventually turned to more modern materials such as paper, canvas, cloth, and other media. Listed below are some of the most popular Indian painting styles.
