Purple and Gold Floral Study: Naturalistic Miniature
Payment Guarantee
Product Description
Description:
This charming miniature painting is a beautiful example of the botanical studies favored by the Mughal and later Rajasthani schools of art. These small, meticulously detailed floral paintings were highly prized and often used to decorate the borders (hashiya) of larger royal album folios (Muraqqa).
Artistic Features:
-
Subject: The painting features a single bunch of stylized flowers, likely a form of Narcissus or Iris, arranged with graceful symmetry and natural flow.
-
Palette: The color scheme is soft yet striking: deep, royal purple/blue petals are contrasted beautifully with saffron-yellow/gold centers. The foliage and winding stems are rendered in a soft, rich green, all set against a calming, pale mint-green background.
-
Style: Executed in the classic Miniature technique (opaque watercolor/Gouache), the work demonstrates fine brushwork and a delicate hand, with a focus on capturing the idealized elegance of the plant rather than strict realism.
-
Medium: Painted on handmade paper, likely antique or specially prepared to mimic the texture of historical folios, giving the piece a delicate, authentic feel.
This affordable and elegant miniature is perfect for starting a collection or adding a touch of timeless, natural beauty to a small space. It celebrates the intricate, sophisticated decorative motifs of classical Indian art.
