Above them a white palace with a pink roof, two yellow pennants, elephant-head brackets and domed corner pavilions stands against a flat black ground, framed by yellow bands and a crimson border. The page illustrates Shri Raga.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe original: gum tempera, ink and gold on paper, about 1650, The Cleveland Museum of Art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMalwa school is the name given to seventeenth-century Rajput painting from Malwa and Bundelkhand in central India, now Madhya Pradesh. It grew from the Jain manuscript tradition of western India and favours rigorously flat compositions: figures against solid blocks of red, green, black or chocolate brown, a strip of sky at the top and brightly coloured architecture, with little modelling or depth. Early dated examples include a Rasikapriya of the 1630s and an Amaru Shataka of 1652, and the style reached its height in a ragamala of 1680 painted by Madho Das. The tradition declined from the 1690s but left its mark on neighbouring regions. Examples are held by the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Cleveland Museum of Art and Minneapolis Institute of Art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach print is a giclée, printed to order.
