This month we have a lengthy article on Deccan miniature painting during 18th and 19th Century by Rohini. Rohini is presently working with Potti Sreeramulu Telugu University. Her write up attempts to address the Deccan miniature paintings that presented women with identities of goddesses, queens and ascetics and the meaning these images convey. She is of the view that they could be depicting real life situations of women who proved their mettle as able administrators and of those who held important political positions.
This is in addition to regular features: i.e. Contents of journals, New arrivals in English and Telugu, New Reports etc..
