Abstract
The narrative scroll paintings across India, South and Southeast Asia highlight an important aspect of socio-cultural and religious connectivity. These are revealed through the many stories which gave rise to the varied painting patterns of each region. This paper looks into this significant aspect of cross-cultural communication and historical relations down the course of the last thousand years.
