EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print showcases the legendary Ranjit Singh, seated majestically on a resplendent gold chair. This remarkable artwork, created by the Punjabi School in the 19th century, measures 24.7x13.5 cm and is proudly displayed at the San Diego Museum of Art in the USA. Ranjit Singh's regal presence is enhanced by his attendants, including a morchal-bearer who stands dutifully by his side. The opaquely painted watercolors and delicate touches of gold embellishments bring an air of grandeur to this depiction. This image offers a glimpse into Sikh court life during that era, with its origins traced back to Pahari school influences from Punjab. The serene garden terrace setting adds to the overall ambiance as it provides an outdoor backdrop for this royal portrait. Intricate details such as the ornate throne and canopy further emphasize Ranjit Singh's status as a ruler and king. His loyal servants can be seen attending to him diligently, one even fanning him with a morchal - symbolizing both luxury and respect. The Edwin Binney 3rd Collection has preserved this invaluable piece of Indian history within their esteemed collection at the San Diego Museum of Art. As we admire this photograph today, we are reminded of Ranjit Singh's significant contributions to Sikh culture and his enduring legacy as a monarch in India.
