    I acquired two early miniature paintings from India, and I'm wondering if there are any knowledgeable people on Indian art here.

    They are painted on mica, and I'm pretty sure they date to the 19th or 18th century, but what region or school are they from? They have quite a bit of gold leaf which is really beautiful, more so than many others I've seen. If anyone has any information I'd love to hear it! Thanks

    Eric

    Ah great, thank you! I'm glad they put the region and dated it to the 19th century, that's super helpful. Maybe I will see if there is a contact at that museum, thanks.
