Gambhir Singh Receiving Gulabani, c1775
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an exquisite 18th-century opaque watercolor and gold on paper painting from the Malwa region of central India, specifically Madhya Pradesh. The scene depicts Gambhir Singh, a historic figure, in a tranquil outdoor setting by a lotus pond. He is shown in regal attire, wearing a red turban and a long, flowing robe, with a pink sari-clad woman named Gulabani presenting him with a rose. Gambhir Singh, a man of importance in Hindoostan during the 1770s, is shown in a seated position, with an air of authority and grace. His entourage, consisting of musicians and other attendants, can be seen in the background, adding to the festive atmosphere. The painting's title suggests that this could be a scene from a dance or musical performance. The painting's rich colors and intricate details showcase the artistic heritage of South East Asia during the 18th century. The use of gold and the delicate application of pigments create a stunning visual effect, making this a valuable addition to any art collection. This painting, now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), offers a glimpse into the past, providing insights into the fashion, culture, and daily life of the people of India during this period. The serene setting of the lotus pond and the interaction between Gambhir Singh and Gulabani convey a sense of peace and harmony, making it a captivating work of art that continues to inspire and intrigue viewers.
