@_onionesque @ambrin_hayat @dpanikkar @NMnewdelhi Brings to mind the poetry of Kalidasa’s Ritusamharam-
“Surpassed!
Women’s graceful gait
by swans
Radiant moon-faces
by full blown lotuses
Eyes
by blue lotuses
Eyebrow-coquetry
by nicely ripping waves”

Thank you for sharing. Quite impressive, the level of patronage of the arts and crafts in the 17th to 19th centuries!

Jackie’s sister Princess Lee Radziwill and she wore colours on this 1962 India trip which were inspired by the colours of miniatures. Jackie was captivated by Indian miniatures and owned several.

@ambrin_hayat @mfaboston What a fine painting!

@ssharadmohhan @DalrympleWill @Chemburstudio @hemantsarin @HiHyderabad @IndiaArtHistory @Go_Movie_Mango @Arpitapedia @WorldofLucknow @cyber_idiaz @pilibhitstories A magnificent gem of a painting! Note the almost jewel like treatment of the ascetic’s water pot and the almost photo realistic treatment of the saint’s visage. So many beautiful details of our saint who has turned away from the pleasures of the city in the distance!

@met_islamicart Amazing patronage by Sir Elijah and Lady Mary Impey for this series of 300 plus paintings in the Impey album. And extremely talented artists like Bhawani Das.
