Portrait of Gadadhar Prasad — Restored Rajput Wall Art

The portrait is of a man clad in a sumptuous gold and maroon robe sitting on an armchair in a carpeted interior hung with green glass lamps. European influence is also notable in the front-facing depiction of the subject, instead of the profile-facing depiction in traditional Rajasthani portraiture. The person appears to be from a wealthy background as he wears pearl and emerald necklaces and gold bracelets.

Northwestern India, Rajasthan, Rajput Kingdom of Alwar, 1881. Original medium: gum tempera and gold on cotton cloth.

Worth knowing: The subject is wearing toe-rings on his right foot.

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