Originally published in 1952, the first part of this book gives a
portrait of Akbar (1542-1605), Emperor of India, not as a War Lord
and Empire Builder, but as a man deeply absorbed in questions of
the Spirit. It follows him in his quest after the various religions
professed in India and the doctrines of the Christian faith. The
text is illustrated by numerous reproductions of contemporary
miniatures. Their style which, under Akbar's inspiring patronage,
resulted from the collaboration of Muslim and Hindu artists who
became acquainted with European paintings, reflects the
universality of the Emperor's mind. The second part of the book is
concerned with the rise and development of this style.
