The true Indian motif is not just the
Taj Mahal, the elephant or the patient peasant behind the ox drawn plough.
It is the crowd, the ocean of faces in the land of multitudes, endlessly
stirring, pushing and moving. It is this human circulation that one sees
India's colour, variety, busyness, and, senses also its power, vitality
and grandeur.....
