"From 1979 to 1986, the Danish visual artist and painter
Niels Nedergaard (1944-1987) lived in #Cairo.
… [Nedergaard] developed a geometric and colourful style of painting unparalleled in Danish art." #DavidCollection

Not to be missed: A Carsten Niebuhr Lecture at the #DavidCollection by Prof. @MJSedgwick (@AarhusUni_int) entitled "#Sufism from Goethe to the New Age, and Beyond".

Either the Naoriah Banker was quite a 'Vela', happily posing for portraits or the artist Sani of #Jalandhar had a fixation towards him. Seen so many c1860 AD #CompanyPainting on him like #DavidCollection (1), Bonhams and now, this trio from @NMnewdelhi posted by @DalrympleWill

'Bikramjit's victory over Darya Khan Rohilla in 1631 AD'.
As Khan revolted against #Mughal ruler #ShahJahan, Bikramjit Bundela was ordered to defeat Khan. Later, Bikramjit too revolted against Mughals & so this painting was not included in #PadshahNama
Now at #DavidCollection.

Beautiful day, #Delhi at 22°c. Great to be outdoors & enjoy sights.
Like this c1760 #DavidCollection painting by Mir Kalan Khan of #Lucknow #Awadh 'Lovers in a Landscape'.
An unusual mix of Iranian couple with an Indian style musician & European flora.
@Peachtreespeaks @ranjona

principles of human existence don’t change
timeless renaissance of life, renewing vigour after winter’s gulag
flowers in smiles, skies in twinkles, spring in sweet whiffs

Awesome weather in #Delhi today and, what sights. Flowers all over! Best part of the year in the #CityOfDjinns.

'A Scribe on a Terrace'.
This is 'Old School Journalism'!
No Table, no Laptop. Also, EXCEPT for the Coffee Cup, Pens & Paper have disappeared now.
Now at #DavidCollection, 1755 AD painting by Muhammad Riza-Hindi, an Indian artist in Iran.
@ranjona @DilliDurAst @Peachtreespeaks

Finally, the sun is out and there is no #DelhiPollution. Time to be out and, enjoy it. Like in this c1750 AD #Mughal inspired #Rajput painting from #Bundi #Rajasthan, now in #DavidCollection 'Four Women in a Palace Garden'.
@Peachtreespeaks @DalrympleWill @ranjona @vijivenkatesh

The #Mughal empire weakened after #Aurengzeb's death in 1707. It's position was further undermined by son #Farrukhsiyar who gave away concessions to #EastIndiaCompany.
From #DavidCollection c1715 painting of 'Farrukhsiyar bestowing a Bracelet'.
@Peachtreespeaks @ranjona @iamrana

'Two Brothers identified as Siva Basavanna & Gahami in Conversation'.
Made c1590 at #Ahmednagar #Deccan & now at #DavidCollection
Grasping his sash firmly, one brother gesticulates eagerly while his listener brother holds, perhaps, a musical instrument.
