Introduction to Indian Art is a comprehensive study of the art and culture of India, written by Ananda K. Coomaraswamy, a renowned art historian and philosopher. The book provides an in-depth exploration of the various art forms of India, including sculpture, painting, architecture, and decorative arts, and their historical and cultural significance.

He also examines the influence of Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism on Indian art, as well as the impact of Islamic and European artistic traditions. The book is richly illustrated with over 200 photographs and illustrations, making it an invaluable resource for anyone interested in Indian art and culture.
