EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Dewan Sawan Mal (Multanwala), a prominent figure from The Kingdom of the Punjab, as depicted in the book "The Kingdom of the Punjab, its Rulers and Chiefs". Created by an unidentified Indian artist around 1840, this watercolour study offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of India during the 19th century. Dewan Sawan Mal exudes regality and elegance in his traditional costume. Adorned with exquisite jewelry including earrings, a necklace, and rings on his fingers, he sits gracefully on a cushioned seat on a beautiful balcony. The intricate arches behind him add to the grandeur of his surroundings. Intriguing details such as his well-groomed beard and turban reflect both his status as a ruler and adherence to Sikh traditions. A carpet featuring vibrant floral patterns lies beneath him while roses are delicately arranged nearby, adding natural beauty to this portrait. This artwork not only captures Dewan Sawan Mal's physical appearance but also provides insight into Punjabi culture at that time. It serves as an important historical document showcasing traditional dress, jewelry, and architectural elements prevalent during this era. Preserved by the National Army Museum in London, this image is part of their extensive collection highlighting significant figures from different periods in history. Its botanical influences further emphasize how art can bridge various disciplines like science and natural history.
