Artist

Hunhar

Hunhar is a Patna School of Painting artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Hunhar painted delicate floral scenes from the mid-1700s, a time when Indian artists blended Persian detail with Rajput color. Their brush traced peonies, lotuses, and jasmine in soft washes over paper, often set against muted backgrounds. Look closely at Untitled (ca. 1760) to spot how petals catch light while stems fade into shadow.

For a deeper dive, tap the small vase of blue flowers peeking from the left edge, it’s a quiet signature repeated across their work.
