Still Life: Bouquet of Flowers Emerging from the Grass — Restored Rajput Wall Art

Studies of flower arrangements in the European manner became a popular subject in Indian miniature painting during the reign of Mughal emperor Jahangir (reigned 1605–27). Inspired by imported prints, Indian artists rendered them in Mughal fashion. Here, in a painting made at a Rajasthani court, the entire bouquet grows magically out of the ground from a single stem.

Northwestern India, Rajasthan, Rajput Kingdom of Bundi, c. 1750. Original medium: gum tempera on paper.

Worth knowing: The central flower is a scarlet-colored poppy, famed for yielding opium.

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