It's the vibrant, striking colors worn by the residents of this ancient – and very proud – region, called “Land of Kings” because of a royal history like no other part of India. The land in which they live is a dry, often-monochromatic desert. But the history of Rajasthan is anything but monochromatic.
Rajasthan has undergone a rapid transformation into a burgeoning cultural capital in recent decades and the city’s art scene has benefited hugely, becoming the most vibrant and exciting on the subcontinent. Rajasthan is home to a host of independent contemporary art galleries, which feature the work of renowned and iconic Rajasthan artists as well as cutting edge contemporary figures.
