Author : B.N. Goswamy

Prof B.N. Goswamy takes readers on a comprehensive visual and literary journey through the painting, A Remarkable Conclave, depicting an imaginary gathering of thinkers, saints and poets such as Tukaram, Guru Nanak, Ramakrishna Paramahamsa, Tiruvalluvar, Narsi Mehta, Eknath, Namdev, Chandidas and other important figures.

Like the layered world that Indian painting is, this seemingly simple, geometrically organised, almost dry-looking, and relatively late painting, seems to say many things at once.
