The painting tradition of Kulu was greatly influenced by the style
of Basohli, probably due to the clan associations between ruling
families of the two states. Being ardent Vaishnavites they brought an
image of Rama from Ayodhya, known locally as Raghuynatha, in 1650 and
worshipped him as the presiding deity of the kingdom. Rulers of Kulu
considered themselves viceregents of the Lord. During the prosperous
regnal years of Raja Man singh a few Basohli painters were invited to
paint an elaborately illustrated set of Ramayana, known popularly as
the ‘Shangri’ Ramayana, after the name of the place where it was traced
in the 19th century. ‘Shangri’ Ramayana was painted between 1690 to
1710 in a charmingly dramatic modification of the Basohli idiom. Some
of the narrative oriented detaios evoke a rang eof emotions, pure and
raw. One may alos detect the painter’s skill in conceiving elaborately
crowded compositions. However the style became more and more gernalized
by the 1750s. During the reign of Raja Pritam Singh(1767-1806), who
commissioned a Bhagavata Purana set. Is noticeable the emergence of a
new style, harshly geometric and stereotyped in its linearization. This
phase was followed by a group of painters who engaged in making facile
reproductions.
