拍品专文

Dipak means lamp or flame, and this raga is a celebration of light. Instead of fire, the artist has chosen to depict the soft warmth of candle-light, heightening the seductive feel of this painting. Another painting of dipak raga from the Doris Wiener Collection, attributed to Bundi and dated 1738, sold at Christie's New York, 20 March 2012, lot 260.
