Summary

Description
English: Painting of Guru Har Rai holding a flower, Pahari style, painted by a Muslim, artwork preserved by the family of Bidhi Chand Chhina. The Guru had an interest in plants and is often depicted holding flowers. He is said to have kept a garden. Kept in the Sursinghwala collection.

Quote: "According to Gurbilas Patshahi 6, a Muslim artist was commissioned at that time to paint portraits of the Guru, which the family have preserved. Bhai Rup Chand's family at Bhai Rupa also has similar paintings, attributed to the same artist." (quote taken from source)
