India Today Jan 4th: "Nearly 50pc of artwork found in foreign auction houses is believed to be stolen. But India rarely stakes a claim to its own antiques because of a limited knowledge about our own heritage". Back from Hampi-Pattadakal-Badami-Aihole in Karnataka. Awesome (really!) temple carvings. The Vijayanagar kingdom in the 1550s was larger than many Mughal empires & yet is relatively unknown:)!
