  • Le terme « École de Madras » désigne l'art de la ville de Madras, en Inde, depuis la colonisation britannique. À l'époque de la domination britannique, les Anglais remarquèrent à Madras des artistes doués. D'importantes colonies étant déjà mises en place dans la ville et autour, fut choisie, pour y créer un établissement qui subvienne aux appétits artistiques de la couronne. Au début, les artistes traditionnels furent employés à la création de meubles, de travaux de ferronnerie ou de divers objets décoratifs pour les palais royaux. Mais très vite le bâtiment devint la première école d'art indienne, précédant même l'Université de Madras. Aujourd'hui l'institut se situe à , dans la ville même de Madras devenue Chennai. (fr)
