Maharaja Abhi Singh (1725-50). is a 1730 paint by Unknown, a Baroque work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting shows a man in a long white robe with red and gold trim. He wears a tall, gold headpiece and holds a red flower in one hand. His jewelry includes necklaces, bracelets, and rings. The background is a simple green, and the whole scene is framed by a decorative border filled with leafy patterns. The painting uses bright, flat colors and clean lines, with no deep shadows. The man’s pose is stiff and formal, typical of portraits from this time. Next, look up Baroque to see how this style compares to other grand, dramatic art.
The artwork is an opaque watercolor on paper portrait depicting Maharaja Abhai Singh of Jodhpur as a young man, created around 1730 by an unknown artist.
