Introduction
The miniature paintings of erstwhile states of Punjab Hills in India are known as Pahari painting. The word Pahari means hilly in the local dialect. These paintings began under the Mughal influence during the reign of Aurangzeb. They also bear the impact of the paintings of Nepal, Kashmir, and Rajasthan etc.
The Pahari School of Miniature Paintings consists of the works of a large number of talented artists who contributed to developing this unique style of painting. It was the outcome of family tradition and the centuries of hard work.
Most of the paintings were destroyed in natural calamities, wars, fire etc. The leftover is not very enlightening, though a few contain the name of their creators. But the rest could be guessed by the art historians on the basis of style and nature of work.
The Pahari paintings have different schools or styles because they had several patrons like the rulers of Basohli, Guler, Kangra, Chamba, Tehri - Garhwal, Nurpur, Mankot, Mandi, Kullu, Bilaspur etc.
The Technique of Pahari Paintings
The artists of Pahari paintings had a similar and consistent style. They all followed uniform methods and their techniques were simple and indigenous.
The sheets of handmade paper were joined together to get the desired thickness. The outlines were drawn in light reddish brown or grey-black colors and then a very thin and transparent coating was applied on the sketches. Finally, on the white coating, the colors were filled. For brightness, the painting was burnished with boulder or river stone called golla or glass or agate, etc.
Use of Naturally Made Colors and Poison in Paintings
The unique style of Pahari miniature paintings had been developed under the aegis of erstwhile princely states of Kangra and Guler States.
Typically in these miniatures about 19 natural colors are used. All these colors are particularly associated with the Kangra School of painting.
These colors were produced from the stones and plants found in the valley of Kangra. It takes about a year to create all the required shades of colors because the colors are extracted from the natural resources and vegetation existing at particular seasons throughout the year. The natural color pigments from mineral and vegetable sources were mixed in water, and gum for binding the paints.
Besides these natural colors, gold dust is also used to give the desired shine and glow to different scenes like that of sunset in the miniatures.
Another exquisite feature of these paintings is the use of natural poison to protect the miniatures from decay. This poison is extracted naturally from the poisonous plants and soot of the smoke that gathers at the roofs of temples where the holy fire of Yagna burns continuously.
The paper was also made naturally from the bio-waste of the of pine trees.
The artists used the brushes generally made of the hair of horse, squirrel, camel, etc. and the peacock feather was used as a pencil. The brush used for the painting was also sometimes made from the wings of local birds preferably that of a peacock.
