Vol. 191994-1995pp. 108-111Hindi

Summary

This Hindi article explores mural sites and pictorial themes in the Bharatpur region of Rajasthan. It describes how palaces, temples, havelis and cenotaphs in Bharatpur and neighbouring districts are adorned with wall paintings depicting episodes from Hindu epics, scenes of courtly life, processions, floral motifs and local legends. The author notes stylistic influences from Mughal miniature painting, regional Rajput schools and folk art. In many sites, vibrant colours and delicate line work are preserved, though some murals are deteriorating due to neglect. The article emphasises the need to document these artworks comprehensively and calls for conservation efforts. It argues that studying the iconography and techniques of Bharatpur murals can shed light on regional tastes and historical interactions between artists.

Conclusion

The survey of Bharatpur’s painted heritage underscores how art history intersects with regional identity. The conclusion urges local authorities and scholars to collaborate in preserving these murals, as they represent a unique synthesis of royal patronage and folk expression. By safeguarding and studying them, future generations can better appreciate the diversity of Indian mural traditions.
