About the piece

Attributed to the 'Stipple Master' of the Mewar school in Rajasthan, this work from circa 1705 represents a peak of naturalist animal portraiture in Indian art. The monkey is rendered with exquisite textural detail against a serene green field, capturing both the physical presence and curious character of the animal.
