Assessment of Mughal Mural Decoration on Contemporary Architecture of Agra and Jaipur
Abstract Wall decoration and architecture have strong relations with each other. This relationship has been seen during the evaluation of wall decorations in the Mughal period and contemporary period. The Mughal period covers the fifteenth century up to the seventeenth century, and the contemporary period belongs to the twentieth century. There is a gap between the two periods. In present time, the concept, theme, and style have been affected by Western culture. The artist, without innovative ideas of Westernization or modernization in art, is being neglected by the society. At present, among the other changes, the impulses have dispelled from natural representation. The impact of abstraction may be seen in art forms, which has been broken by the tendency of making the natural things and converting them into abstract. This is the main theme for decorating a building in the present scenario. Except from all innovations, Indian art has its roots into its cultural and religious diameter. The present paper is an analytical study to explore the trend and trendies of present-time mural decoration in Jaipur architecture. This paper will also focus on the impact of Mughal art on contemporary wall decorations and also make clear if contemporary wall decorations have any impact from Mughal wall decorations or not. The study is based on primary as well as secondary data. The sources of primary data are the many Mughal monuments of Agra, and for contemporary, these are the Dayal Bagh Temple and Kalakriti Emporium in Agra, hotels, and Vidhan Sabha Bhawan in Jaipur. The result has been finalized by discussions with artists, masons, historians, architects, and art conservators.
