Abstract: | The murals at Kulu are of three types: the Devi mural in Kangra style in the old Shish Mahal, most likely painted by Sajnu during the reign of Raja Preetam Singh of Kulu (1767-1806); the murals by the Kulu artist Bhagwan and his associates in the time of Raja Bikram Singh (1806-16), depicting the marriage of Ramayana and Nayika-Bheda, Raja Bikram Singh and his retinue, and other compositions; and Sikh-style murals and floral decorations executed under Rai Dalip Singh (1869-92). The notes by Mulk Raj Anand illustrations describe the depictions, colour scheme, draftsmanship, composition, and technique. Source of Abstract: Provided by Publisher |
