Ancient India Living Traditions British museum exhibition.

From Ancient India: living traditions at The British Museum 大英博物館「古代インド：生きている伝統」展。ジャイナ教、仏教、ヒンズー教美術における人物表現の起源と発展が主なテーマ。法隆寺金堂9号壁画の桜井香雲による模写があって驚く。狛犬と連座を支える人物がゆるカワイイ。（続）

英国外交官アーネスト・サトウの依頼で1880年に描かれ1881年に大英博物館がウィリアム・アンダーソン教授より購入とのこと。全ての展示物にどのようにしてこの展示物がここにあるのか詳細に表示してある。植民地主義者による発掘で学術的な記録が不明になってしまったものには批判的反省の記述も（続）

あと、ジャイナ教の世界観を表す布の、海部分が青海波文様だったのに驚く。
