EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 18th century opaque watercolor and gold on paper portrait depicts Raja Dip Singh of Kaparan, a prominent ruler from the princely state of Bundi in Rajasthan, India. The painting, believed to have been created between the 1780s and 1790s, showcases the Raja in a tranquil setting, seated on a raised terrace surrounded by lush greenery. He is dressed in traditional attire, adorned with precious jewels and holding a fly whisk in one hand and a hookah pipe in the other. Two attendants, one holding a fan and the other a tambura, stand behind him, adding to the regal ambiance. The Raja is shown in deep concentration, perhaps lost in the melodic strains of a song. The presence of lotus flowers and a nargilah pipe further emphasizes the peaceful and contemplative mood of the scene. The vibrant use of orange and other colors adds to the richness and grandeur of the portrait. The painting is a testament to the artistic heritage of Hindustan and South East Asia during the 18th century. It is a rare and valuable representation of the lifestyle, occupation, and royalty of the time. This beautiful artwork is now part of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art's (LACMA) collection and serves as a reminder of the cultural and artistic legacy of India during this period.
