They not only portray various mythological situations and instances from local folk tales but even daily chores and sometimes just images from nature. This range, which makes it a truly representative art form, betrays its popularity and relevance in its time. Culled from temples, mansions, havelis and houses, these paintings are artifacts of great socio-historical importance. They are an integral part of the nation s artistic and cultural heritage.

Book excerpt: Cycling into rarely visited northern Rajasthan's tiny desert towns author discovers impressive buildings, their walls covered with vibrant paintings. Fascinated, he settles nearby and, exploring, finds that the main painted towns lie in the defunct administrative district of Shekhawati. Research reveals the unpublished writings and drawings of Col Lockett and Lt Boileau, who crossed Shekhawati in 1831. Both men are depicted in contemporary murals. Their mission was to enquire into, and record the brigandry then affecting local trade. This led to the founding of a Shekhawati Brigade to suppress robbery and bring security to the local merchants. Peace and prosperity returned, creating ideal conditions for a display of conspicuous wealth. The merchants commissioned fine buildings and, as a final touch, their walls were painted. So a military mission led to an artistic one!
Book Synopsis Bundi Fort by : Milo Cleveland Beach
Download or read book Bundi Fort written by Milo Cleveland Beach and published by Marg Publications. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: * Some of the most attractive wall-paintings found anywhere in India* Important new information about court lifeThe wall-paintings in the Rajput fort at Bundi include the earliest and finest examples of court painting known in India. Only recently available for sustained study, these wall-decorations help to define the religious, literary and artistic interests of the court; the functions of the spaces they adorn; the political aspirations of the rulers; and the evolving relationships between one court, its Rajput neighbors, and its Mughal overlords.True understanding of the wall-paintings is impossible without knowledge of the walls that support them, the ceremonials they surrounded or described, and the events, conflicts and alliances which brought the court (and the painters) into contact with other geographic areas and cultural traditions of India. Scholars have recently located local historical chronicles and literary texts (in Hindi) that yield important new information about court life. Additional projects have produced plans and measured drawings of the buildings within the fort at Bundi, as well as photographic documentation of the wall-paintings in situ. Since this is all new, separately conceived information, full publication and coordination of these discoveries is essential, and it should transform understanding of Rajput painting and architecture in Rajasthan.Contents: Introduction, The Rulers of Bundi, Map - Milo Cleveland Beach; Architectural Structures and Spaces in the Fort Palaces at Bundi - Domenico Catania, Attilio Petruccioli, Claudio Rubini; The Wall Paintings of the Badal Mahal - Milo Cleveland Beach; Elephants, War, and Mughal Service: The Martial Lordship of Bundi's Rao Ratan - Cynthia Talbot; Narrations of Self and Other in Mughal Period Literary Culture - Allison Busch; Painted Palaces: Early 17th Century Rajput Architectural Decoration - Edward Leland Rothfarb; The Bundi Palace's Rang Vilas garden: an unusual Rajput chahar bagh - D.
