Book Description
About the Book
This lavishly illustrated book, the third and final volume in the series Orchha, Datia, Panna: Miniatures from the Royal Courts of Bundelkhand, deals with the third, fourth, and fifth periods of Bundelkhand painting, which span the years 1635 through 1840. It begins with the Mughalizing painting styles that predominated in Datia after the disintegration of Orchha in 1635 and the rise of Datia as an independent principality and major cultural center. It also addresses the development of Bundelkhand painting after 1675, when Raja Chhatrasal established Panna as the capital of his Bundela kingdom. Bundelkhand painting ceased with the raja's death in 1731, and it was only after a long interruption that it experienced an Indian summer at the court of Datia during the period of British suzerainty in the nineteenth century. However, the style of this latter era no longer bore a resemblance to the Datia and Orchha schools of the seventeenth century, but was rather an offshoot of the prevailing Mughal-Rajput style developed by painters who had left Delhi in the second half of the eighteenth century. Through stylistic analyses and interpretations of more than ninety paintings from his collection, many of them published here for the first time, the author provides a rich insight into the many and varied developments of later Bundelkhand painting.
