Mera Bali
Rajasthani Paintings have been a centre of attraction for all.
During the early medieval period, perhaps early 5th century, a unique art form
took shape in Marudesh (present day Rajasthan).
During this period Marudesh saw
tremendous changes in the political and cultural sphere and these changes lent
a helping hand in further development of art. By the onset of seventh century;
art of painting and sculpture had reached its zenith in this area.
Colorful tradition of Rajasthanis reflects
in art of paintings as well. This painting style is called Maru-Gurjar
Painting. It throws light on the royal heritage of ancient Rajasthan.
Under the Royal patronage various styles of paintings developed, cultivated and
practiced in Rajasthan and reached its pinnacle of glory by 15th to 17th
centuries. The major painting styles are phad paintings, miniature paintings, kajali paintings, gemstone
paintings etc. There is incredible diversity and imaginative
creativity found in Rajasthani paintings. Major schools of art are Mewar, Marwar, Kishangarh, Bundi, Kota, Jaipur and Alwar.
Phad painting (Mewar Style of
painting) is the most ancient Rajasthani art form. Phad paintings,
essentially a scroll painting done on cloth, are beautiful specimen of the
Rajasthani cloth paintings. These have their own styles and patterns and are
very popular due to their vibrant colors and historic themes. The Phad of God Devnarayan is largest
among the popular Pars in Rajasthan. The painted area of God Devnarayan Ki
Phad is 170 square feet. Some other Pars are also prevalent in Rajasthan, but
being of recent origin they are not classical in composition. Another
famous Par painting is Pabuji Ki Phad. Pabuji Ki
Phad is painted on a 15 x 5 ft. canvas. Other famous heroes of Phad
paintings are Gogaji, Prithviraj Chauhan, Amar Singh Rathore etc.
