Cold-blooded, deliberate cruelty mark not only his
advancing years but his whole reign, wrote Sir
Charles Oman. This quote exemplifies the thoughts
and opinions held by many towards King Henry VIII
and the way in which he reigned from 1509 to 1547.
However many thought otherwise. His Lord
Chancellor proclaimed that, Henry was a most
gentle gentleman, his nature so benign and
pleasant that I think till this day no man hath
heard many angry words pass his mouth. Henry
indeed has shown to be somewh...

background of a dynasty is always important in
discussing art, however the historical background
of the Gupta period will not be discussed in

thesis. My discussion of Gupta art deals mainly

are four separate plots, or at least four separate
centres of...
