The Adulterer And Kama The Seduction Of Illicit Love

“The Adulterer and Kama: The Seduction of Illicit Love” explores erotic images from pre-modern India through the lens of kamashastra traditions, where adultery is treated as a pathway to uninhibited sexual pleasure. Celebrated art historian Alka Pande curates visual evidence of secret liaisons between married men, women and courtesans, revealing a candid, non‑prudish Indian erotic imagination that modern society often hides.
