हवा का ज़ोर वर्षा की झड़ी, झाड़ों का गिर पड़ना कहीं गरजन का जाकर दूर सिर के पास फिर पड़ना उमड़ती नदी का खेती की छाती तक लहर उठना ध्‍वजा की तरह बिजली का दिशाओं में फहर उठना ये वर्षा के अनोखे दृष्‍य जिसको प्राण से प्‍यारे जो चातक की तरह ताकता है बादल घने कजरारे जो भूखा रहकर, धरती चीरकर जग को खिलाता है जो पानी वक्‍त पर आए नहीं तो तिलमिलाता है अगर आषाढ़ के पहले दिवस के प्रथम इस क्षण में वही हलधर अधिक आता है, कालिदास के मन में तू मुझको क्षमा कर देना।

Paired Painting

Maharana Pratap Praying to Goddess at Haldighati

This profound painting captures a deeply spiritual moment from the legendary Battle of Haldighati fought in 1576. Maharana Pratap, the noble ruler of Mewar, pauses amidst the swirling chaos of war to offer his absolute devotion to the Divine Mother, depicted in the celestial clouds manifesting with multiple arms bearing sacred weapons. Mounted on his loyal horse Chetak, the warrior king lowers his sword and bows his head in complete surrender to the divine will, reminding us that true strength is born from humility and faith. Around him, devoted soldiers tend to the wounded and ready themselves for the righteous struggle, their armor gleaming under a turbulent sky, while the royal standard flutters bravely in the distance. The artwork serves as an eternal testament to the unyielding spirit of Mewar, where duty to the motherland and spiritual grace were inextricably intertwined.
