All Creative Work Is Derivative (Minute Meme #2) | QuestionCopyright.org: "I was very affected by a South Asian sculpture exhibit I saw at the Met years ago (I was early in producing 'Sita' and still seeking Ramayana art) which made it very clear how ancient Greece and India were cross-pollinating each other. There was one period in which Greek and Indian sculpture were almost indistinguishable. This is especially striking since we're taught 'Western' and 'Eastern' history are separate; when the British colonized India centuries later, it was like a lost exotic land to them."
