English: Media & Support: Opaque watercolor on paper Creation Date: ca. 1780 Creation Place/Subject: India State-Province: Rajasthan Court: Jaipur School: Rajasthani Display Dimensions: 9 27/32 in. x 11 1/32 in. (25 cm x 28 cm) Credit Line: Edwin Binney 3rd Collection Accession Number: Collection: The San Diego Museum of Art Label Copy: A Hindi inscription on the reverse identifies this scene as the ghat, or riverbank, at Jaunpur. Situated on the Gomti River north of Banaras in Uttar Pradesh, Jaunpur was once a great cultural center. Even today the city is famous for its fifteenth century mosques and schools and for its mid-sixteenth century bridge built during the reign of the great Mughal Akbar. This is one of a group of five paintings by a Jaipur painter who took up Western perspective with a vengeance. He has fancifully populated the city with Europeans. 6 September 2011, 14:28:39.
