About the piece Scroll ↓

Themes of punishments of hell were popular in Rajasthani ateliers, and several courts commissioned paintings depicting infernal cruelty. The dark-skinned punisher pulls a royal figure from his terrace with chains and is about to smite him with his baton. A ferocious tiger can be seen ripping another man with his claws.

Northwestern India, Rajasthan, Rajput Kingdom of Bundi, c. 1740. Original medium: gum tempera and gold on paper.

Worth knowing: Both sinners have turbans unraveling.

Faithfully restored from museum archives and printed on premium canvas-textured fine art paper, framed and ready to hang.
