Shiva y Parvati jugando al chaupar: folio de una serie del Rasamanjari

dated 1694–95
Not on view
Esta pintura pertenece a una serie que ilustra el Rasamanjari (Esencia de la experiencia del deleite), un poema amoroso sánscrito del siglo XV del escritor Bhanudatta cuyo tema es la descripción y clasificación de los humores y las emociones del nayaka (héroe-amante) y la nayika (heroína-amada). Tiene su origen en el primer tratado de arte dramático, el Natyashastra de Bharata. Vivos colores y ambigüedades espaciales acentúan la emoción de la escena, en la que Parvati suplica a su esposo Shiva, que acaba de ganarle su collar haciendo trampas en una partida de chaupar. El uso simbólico del color y del gesto es una de las principales características de la escuela Basohli en este periodo.
