Product Description

This painting is from Baramasa series of Kangra paintings depicting month of Agahana or Margshirsha (November-December). It illustrates the early winter season in north India when the sky is clear blue and swans migrate from the mountains to the plains. The lovers are standing on a terrace overlooking a lake in which water-birds are disporting. A flight of swans is soaring into the sky. This painting is inspired by the following poem (translated to English) of famous Hindi poet Keshavdas from Kavipriya :

Of all the months to God Agahana is most dear. This is the month for happiness and salvation of the soul. The river banks are covered with flowers and joyous notes of swans fill the air. The days are neither cold nor hot. How lucky to be together my love! Do not therefore leave me alone in Agahana, this lovely month of the year.
