A Royal Ride - Watercolor Paintings

Sobriety is the keynote of this A Royal Ride - Watercolor Paintings. Executed in monochromes, it is a regal miniature. The pachyderm from the royal stables is adorned with ornaments par excellence - the satin over cloth, the metallic head ornament, the festoons, etc. Its rear body is almost concealed beneath the rich cloth. The loose skins on the animal's forelimbs or the rings around its trunk are cleverly achieved.

In a superbly crafted seat are seated princes from the royal household. Calm & dignified in their demeanor, they are a picture of regal grace. Behind them, a man stands with a huge umbrella, a symbol of royalty. The mahout sits in front, goading and guiding the elephant.

On close inspection and observation, we find the design & decoration of the seat quite influenced by contemporary European elements. The posture of the lions placed at the lower edges is not Indian, nor are the spears holding figurines in the front. It clearly shows that by this time, European art had made inroads into the Indian art territory and was here to stay.
