"THE Giottos of Hindu art," I wrote in an article on "Oriental Culture in Modern Pedagogics" in School and Society (April 14, 1917), "would be well known 'great masters' to the students of early Renaissance painting, and the post-impressionists and futurists of Eur-America would be found to have as their comrades in new ventures and experiments the Hindu painters of the modern nationalist school." Such was the message also of my talks at the Pen and Brush Club, Columbia University, the Civic Club, and other institutions in the United States, the outcome of which is this little book. Parts of it have appeared in the Journal of Race Development, and in the Modern Review (Calcutta).
