A general term for Indian treatises (shastras) on the visual arts (shilpa). It mainly focuses on architectural treatises (bhastushastras) and includes rules on the appearance of statues of various deities, paintings, sculptures, etc. In India, artistic activity is considered to be an imitation of the heavenly works created by the god of craftsmanship, Visvakarma, and treatises on art are considered to be divine rules written by gods or sages. The representative Hindu architectural treatise, Mānasara, was compiled in South India in the 6th to 7th centuries, and the North Indian Samarānganasūtradhara was written around the 11th century.

インドの造形芸術(シルパ)に関する論書(シャーストラ)の総称。建築論(バーストゥシャーストラ)を主とし,諸尊の像容,絵画,彫刻などの諸規定を含む。インドでは芸術活動は工巧(くぎよう)神ビシュバカルマーViśvakarmāなどが造った天上界の諸作品を模倣することであると考えられ,芸術論書も神々もしくは聖仙(仙人)が記した神的な規定であるとされる。ヒンドゥー教の代表的建築論《マーナサーラ》は6~7世紀に南インドで編纂され,北インドの《サマラーンガナスートラダラー》は11世紀ごろの作。
