A PICCHVAI DEPICTING A CITY MAP OF NATHDWARA NORTH INDIA, RAJASTHAN, NATHDWARA, 19TH CENTURY 69 3/8 x 63 ? in. (176.2 x 160.7 cm.)
Like lot 412, the present work depicts the city of Nathdwara, where the main icon devoted to Shrinathji is located. At center is the icon, and two priests make offerings at either side. Pilgrims are depicted processing through the maze-like streets of the city, leading to the main square, where numerous worshippers and cows are gathered. The present painting does not depict the Moti Mahal, the private residence of the local ruler, which was built in 1861, perhaps indicating a date of manufacture prior to the palace’s construction.
