You will love this colorful Rajasthani Ragamala art.

It is a beautiful watercolor painting with all the finesse of a princess dancing to the beat of a Dhol (drum) in the company of a peacock against a lush natural backdrop.

Painting is full of grandeur and color that captures the contemplative mood of the subject.

The Ragini paintings are named for an ancient tradition of Indian miniature paintings which reflect the mood of a young maiden who seeks solace and joy in a imagined world of dematerialized landscape and rhythmic ragas.

Ragamala Paintings are a series of illustrative paintings from medieval India based on Ragamala or the 'Garland of Ragas', depicting various Indian musical nodes, Ragas. They stand as a classical example of the amalgamation of art, poetry and classical music in medieval India. The paintings depict not just the Ragas, but also their wives, (raginis).
