Discusses religious art in Goa before and after the arrival of the Portuguese, and concludes that the sense of cultural superiority of the Europeans, including the missionaries, did not allow them to accept cultural and religious expressions of the local population as appropriate to the religion that they sought to impose; but that the resistance and cultural strength of the Indians gave rise to the synthesis of traditions, largely influenced by Indian culture, that resulted in Indo-Portuguese art. Considers examples of paintings, sculptures, and church furnishings of the 16th-17th cs. that illustrate this.
