  Raja Ravi Varma`s work has maintained a lasting effect on the Indian sensibility, making him the best-known classical painter of the modern era.

This book is an account of Ravi Varma`s traditional background and environment and the manner in which they related to the modernization of colonial India; his profession as an aristocratic itinerant painter, his royal patrons, his portraits and the analysis of his mythological and iconic paintings; his influence on the Indian mindset, the sources used by him and his controversial status from the late nineteenth century till today even while contemporary painters continue to be inspired by his art and his attitude. There is also a chapter devoted to the technical examination of his paintings, their conservation, his methodology of painting and the problem of fakes and copies. The book is lavishly illustrated with pictures taken from princely and private collections and museums. Several royal states of India as well as the rich and powerful were patrons of Ravi Varma whose portraits he painted in large numbers. These also appear in the book among the works that have never been seen before, previously undisclosed maps, letters, photographs and other archival material.
