'Puja and Piety'celebrates the complexity of South Asian representation and iconography by examining the relationship between aesthetic expression and the devotional practice, or 'puja,' in the three native religions of the Indian subcontinent. This stunning and authoritative catalogue presents some 150 objects created over the past two millennia for temples, home worship, festivals, and roadside shrines.
