Art is a reshaping of reality by man to present it in an understandable way. As the artist recreates the world around him, it is shaped by how he sees it and what he believes in. The Indian artist did not attempt to depict only the material reality around him. He wished to share the complete experience of the moment, not just a photographic presentation of the shapes around him. Beauty for the Indian artist has been a reflection of the glory of God.
