circa 1950s, Jodhpur State(3)
This rare set of four reverse glass paintings originates from the princely state of Jodhpur, circa 1950s, and showcases the distinctive style of the Jodhpur School of Art. Known for its bold use of color, intricate linework, and regal subject matter, the Jodhpur School often depicted royal portraits, mythological themes, and courtly life with striking elegance.
Crafted in the reverse glass technique—where paint is meticulously applied to the back of the glass surface—these works retain a jewel-like clarity and brilliance. Each painting demonstrates the fusion of traditional Rajasthani miniature aesthetics with the luminous quality of glass painting, making them both devotional and decorative treasures.
Preserved as a complete set, they carry with them not only artistic value but also cultural significance, reflecting the visual traditions of post-independence Rajasthan. Perfect for collectors and connoisseurs, the set offers a rare opportunity to own four cohesive works of mid-20th-century Jodhpur artistry.
