- Catalogue of Paintings – Covers murals in temples, palaces, cenotaphs; mostly epic (Ramayana, Mahabharata), Puranic, with secular themes like hunting, flora, fauna.
- Techniques – In-depth exploration of fresco-buono, secco tempera, and sgraffito; wall preparation, pigment creation, drawing methods.
- Styles & Influences – Highlights local Bundela idiom, then Mughal, Rajasthani (Amber/Jaipur), and late‑period Maratha (post‑Peshwa Baji Rao I).
- Glossary & Bibliography – Technical terms and sources, making it a valuable academic reference.
