Abstract:The chronology is established with the aid of dated landmarks in Rajasthani miniature painting which typify its stages of development. As against the pre-Mughal ancestry of the school advocated by Coomaraswamy and Goetz, Hermann, it is argued that the impact of the Mughal school on conventional Gujarati style manuscript illustration gave rise to Rajasthani miniature painting. In the late 15th century, a number of Gujarati illustrated manuscripts, e.g. the Devasans Pada Kalpasutra, displayed a marked Persian influence. The first results of the Mughal impact are dated to the last decade of the 16th century, and continued to be reflected in various manuscripts datable between 1590 and 1680. The typical features of these Rajasthani paintings, including facial types and costumes, are compared, and it is concluded that the Rajasthani school had its slow development from the fountainhead of Mughal influence.
