Manuscript of the Jambudvipa-prajnapti-sutra (Description of Jambudvipa), Northwestern India, Rajasthan, Marwar, Mandore, 1513. Cleveland Museum of Art (ID: 25.2014). As examples of the dominant artistic style from the early 1500s, these two Jain manuscript illuminations depict two-dimensional scenes using only three colors plus gold, black, and white. They do not illustrate the content of the text. Instead, they show the figure of an enlightened being at the center of concentric circles—an abstract vision of the transmission of his teachings into all directions. Below, an exalted monk passes on the teachings from an elaborate throne, surrounded by adoring followers and auspicious symbols. The images show that the text derives from those teachings. The horizontal format reflects the use of palm leaves for manuscript pages centuries before. (Cleveland Museum of Art)

I was walking around in #Mandore Gardens in #jodhpur and this is when I noticed a newly married couple entering a temple within the garden complex to get blessings and they were accompanied by a young boy and his father. I really wanted to #photograph the family but didn't want to interfere in their private affair. So I started walking alongside them and this is when the young lad who noticed me with the camera hanging around my neck approached and asked me to get his photo to which I excitedly agreed! And this is what we came out with!! . . . . Nothing like a #photography story. #portrait by @shrishti__sharma . .

The Deval of Maharaj Ajit Singh
Built circa 1736 CE, the Nagari elevation and statuary of Hindu deities gives this cenotaph (funeral memorial) an almost temple like appearance.
