About the piece
This exquisite Pahari miniature, originating from the Chamba region circa 1760, portrays Shiva seated on a golden throne in a state of tranquil meditation. Set against a backdrop of rhythmic, stylized rock formations and lush trees, the work captures the spiritual stillness and delicate line work characteristic of North Indian courtly traditions.
