Abstract
The manuscript now preserved as Indien 745 in the Manuscript Department of the Bibliothèque nationale de France (BnF) contains 137 paintings by an Indian artist, each accompanied by an explanation in French. These paintings depict deities and sages in static posture or narrative mode, as well as icons associated with temples. The present contribution forms a preliminary study of this manuscript in our project on South Indian manuscripts with paintings of deities preserved in the BnF.
