Scholarly literature on the decorative arts in India is scanty and mainly in learned journals.
The Journal of Indian Art and Industries (1886-1916) is the most important and contains numerous pioneering studies. See article by Peter H. Hoffenberg entitled "John Lockwood Kipling, W. H. Griggs and The Journal of Indian Art and Industry" written in 2003 for a complete description of this periodical. He states: ".Kipling's and Buck's vision encouraged use of the latest photographic and reproductive innovations to ensure accurate and attractive illustrations of lasting quality. Griggs and his editorial staff took advantage of that encouragement and of the most current technology to produce exquisite color chromo- and photo-lithographs bound in leather. Black and white illustrations were also included.No doubt the publisher applied chromo- lithographic technologies from Britain and the continent, but the pages of the Journal also included illustrations resulting from innovative work in the heliogravure and collotype sections of India's own Revenue and Agriculture Department, particularly the offices devoted to the Survey of India.

Original front and rear wraps from each issue are bound in at the rear. These covers have the contents of each issue printed on the, Exceedingly rare third volume of this seminal and Influential periodical on Indian arts.
