Mughal murals in Udaipur

Wednesday, October 24, 2012

Walking through the streets of Udaipur you will see that many walls of houses, temples and palaces, are decorated with Mughal-style murals. 

Often around doorposts, depicting elephants, men on horses, maharaja's, the mustached sungod and elegant ladies. Here are some examples:
























So although I did not have any success in my quest for contemporary, street art murals during my last months in India, I was really happy to run into these! A whole new style for me and very beautiful, I find.
I wish we would do this more in the Netherlands; it would make everything so much more colorful and fun!
