Mandi, Shangri, circa 1750 A.D.,

National Museum, New Delhi

Mandi, with a stylistic idiosyncrasy of its own and a greater thematic thrust, acquired a great distinction in Devi’s Tantrika cult. Various tantrika innovations of Devi, usually rendered in crude awe-inspiring form, constitute the prime theme of Mandi miniatures. The awful Devi forms acquire further impetus in Mandi style by excessively and mystically using black, red and blue colours in their deepest tones.

Painting Date: circa 1750 A.D.
