Tourist Destinations of Rajasthan Kishangarh About This Place Kishangarh, located on National Highway 8, was the capital of a
princely state ruled by the Rathors. During the brief span of twenty years
between 1737 and 1757, Kishangarh art was at its zenith. Crown prince
Savant Singh (1699-1764) was a guiding force behind the strong devotional
fervor at the court and rejuvenation of paintings suffused with the
spiritual yearning of a soul in quest of the Lord. With Savant Singh,
however, bhakti became an increasing obsession until he became completely
indifferent to his princely status.
Since the 18th century , Kishangarh has had one of India's most famous schools of miniature painting., Among its renowned paintings ia that of Krishna's conserort, Radha, depicted as a beautiful woman with enchanting almond - shaped eyes. Kishangarh is also famous for painted wooded furniture. |
