Shamsuddin Tanwri

Any classical form of painting has its certain limitations and rules. Miniature is no different. Persian miniature art never lost its essence because the artisan kept it alive but unfortunately Mughal miniature adrifted from its true glory and was influenced by Persian miniatures. Since we don't have any ustaad or artisans that are expert in Mughal miniature, we are left with only pictorial references. I decided to revive the Mughal form of miniature with the opulent gold and silver leaves. Mughal miniature depicted the grandeur of the Kings and their romanticized lives. I have tried to incorporate my personal observations from the pictorial references which are like photographic negatives of the real artwork. Thus, the use of graphite powder, graphite pencils and white paint. With this recent range of my work, I wish to embark a journey which is revival of the magnificent Mughal miniature
