Maharaja Jai Singh and Vieny Singh were instrumental in setting up this museum, which is housed in a portion of the old city palace of Alwar. It has a representative collection of sculpture of the region, paintings and manuscripts, and a number of articles belonging to the royal family of Alwar, such as textiles, royal robes, turbans and ceremonial gowns.
For the lover of traditional Indian art , it is the painting and manuscript sections that are the most interesting. the museum has a copy of the famous Gulistan (The Rose Garden), written in 1258. the entire manuscript is beautifully illustrated by artists of Alwar.
Paintings from the Alwar school of the 19th century include a series of the incarnations of Vishnu and a Ragamala series, and there are some late Mughal paintings, as well as portraits of the Alwar royal family. |
