About the piece Scroll ↓

A youthful prince clad in yellow jama (belted tunic) holds a goad in his hand to control his elephant. His attendant sits in the back holding the royal insignia, a flying whisk, which billows in response to the velocity with which the elephant is running. The background of the painting is monochromatic green, a highly corrosive pigment.

Northwestern India, Rajasthan, Rajput Kingdom of Mewar, c. 1695. Attributed to Mewar Stipple Master. Original medium: gum tempera and gold on paper.

Worth knowing: The tusk of the elephant is decorated with a gold ring.

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