A Modern Indian Processional Narrative Gouache Painting

£160.00
A large-scale narrative painting executed in gouache on a textured support, depicting an elaborate royal procession in the Mughal style. Measures almost 6ft wide/long. The work is presented in a horizontal panoramic format, featuring a central royal elephant carrying a howdah with two figures. The scene transitions from a rural landscape on the left, where a hunter on horseback encounters a lion, through the main procession of musicians and attendants, to a palace complex on the right. Additional animals including a cheetah on a bullock cart, a camel, and a small flock of sheep and goats follow the primary figures. The composition is densely detailed with fine decorative patterns on the architectural elements and animal caparisons. The palette utilizes earthy ochre and green tones for the landscape contrasted with vibrant red, blue, and yellow highlights in the textiles. A stylized floral border runs along the lower edge of the composition.
