It is attributed to Nihal Chand, a master of the Kishangarh style during the mid-eighteenth century. The work displays the characteristic elongated facial features, almond-shaped eyes, and pointed noses that define the aesthetic of this period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe composition depicts a royal scene where the Maharaja sits upon a cushioned dais, engaged in conversation with a female figure. He is surrounded by attendants who hold various objects, suggesting a courtly setting. In the background, a white architectural structure overlooks a green expanse, while a distant city skyline is visible against a twilight sky. The scene is enclosed within a decorative border featuring gold floral motifs on a dark red ground, a common framing technique in Rajasthani manuscript illumination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNihal Chand is widely recognised for his contributions to the Kishangarh school, particularly his depictions of the divine lovers Radha and Krishna, though his courtly portraits remain equally significant. The use of opaque watercolour and gold leaf provides a luminous quality to the garments and jewellery worn by the figures. The flat perspective and attention to decorative detail are hallmarks of the Rajput tradition, which prioritised symbolic representation over realistic spatial depth. This print captures the refinement of the Kishangarh court, where art served as a medium for documenting royal life and spiritual devotion. The careful application of colour and the precise line work reflect the high level of craftsmanship expected of royal atelier artists during the reign of Maharaja Sawant Singh.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/maharana-amar-singh-ii-riding-a-jodhpur-horse-stipple-master\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eMaharana Amar Singh II Riding a Jodhpur Horse by Stipple Master\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/seduction-scene-on-a-terrace-by-moonlight-mughal-school\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eSeduction Scene on a Terrace by Moonlight by Mughal School\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/nihal-chand\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#2a555a;border:1px solid #2a555a;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#ffffff;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eMore by Nihâl Chand →\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Nihâl Chand","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59138472214863,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59138478440783,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59138478473551,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59138478506319,"sku":null,"price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59138478539087,"sku":null,"price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Maharaja-Raj-Singh-in-Procession-with-Members-of-His-Court_Poster_CompositorV1_1792119562645.jpg?v=1792196781"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/collections\/nihal-chand.oembed","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
