| Publisher Description: 1. This is the first monograph to address the visual culture of French India beyond the reception of Indian textiles in European markets. 2. It puts in dialogue scholarship and methodologies of both South Asian and European history and art history. 3. It provides a timely counterweight to the British-dominated narratives of 17th- and 18th-century India, nuancing our understanding of European trade and imperalism on the subcontinent during this time. |
