Indian Miniature Painting

Pigment on paper, framed 32×22cm.

Step back into the royal courts of the 18th century with this beautiful Indian Miniature. Likely hailing from the Pahari or Rajput schools, this piece illustrates a moment of natural tension and poetic grace. Accompanied by elegant Devanagari script, the painting uses fine brushwork to depict a narrative scene between predators and prey. Its bold, terracotta border is a classic hallmark of the "Hill Styles" of the Himalayan foothills.
