About the Book
This work, For Painters at the Sikh Court, is one of the most significant contributions to Punjab studies. It goes beyond just a study of painting and patronage; it delves into the intricate workings of the Sikh courts at both royal and sub-royal levels. The book is based on a collection of twenty documents—a rare find—stemming from a single family of painters from the Pahari region. After patronage diminished in their native region, these painters moved to Lahore, where they served at the Sikh court.
The book enhances our understanding of the cultural, social, and artistic environment at the Sikh court, shedding light on the dynamics between artists, patronage, and politics.
