Lot Description

An Indian Painting of Vishnu Seated on a Lotus, Punjab Hills, Basohli, Circa 1700-1720
1700-1720年 印度旁遮普山丘巴梭利派細密畫毗湿奴像
India, Punjab Hills, Basohli, Circa 1700-1720

Opaque watercolor on paper.
Depicting Vishnu seated gracefully on a blooming lotus, this striking representation exemplifies early Pahari painting. Adorned with beetle wing cases to replicate the brilliance of emerald gemstones, this technique is a hallmark of the Basohli workshop.
巴梭利畫派是十七-十八世紀盛行於印度山丘諸邦的帕哈里細密畫的區域畫派。畫派的名稱是源自此風格重鎮——巴梭利獨立小邦。不過,巴梭利風格的畫作廣泛見於整個區域。

巴索利畫風的特色在於長方形的畫面和大膽的線條用色,譬如暗紅色鑲邊、純色背景、隨性的建築與裝飾設計。人物面部通常很誇張:多為側面像,眼睛大而有神。還有一種特殊技巧:使用厚重、凸起的滴狀白色顏料代表珠寶。

Folio: 7 5/8 x 5 7/8 in, 19.4 x 14.9 cm; Image: 5 1/2 x 4 1/2 in., 14 x 11.4 cm.
