Summary
| Description |
English: Mural panel from Gurdwara Baba Atal Rai in Amritsar depicting Nanak meeting his sister Nanaki in Sultanpur, circa 19th century. Mural artwork from Gurdwara Baba Atal Sahib Ji. The inscription near Nanak can be roughly translated and summarized as saying: "1 Guru Ji Anjami Guru Nanak Ji got twenty seven opportunities to greet Bibi Nanaki who came to Palkara." The bottom inscriptuin says: "Sultanpur". The other inscriptions identify a young Sri Chand (Nanak's eldest son), and Nanak's parents, Mehta Kalu (father) and Tripta (mother). Also depicted are Nanak's friends and companions, Bhai Mardana and Bhai Bala.
The frescoes of Gurdwara Baba Atal are believed to have been originally painted around the mid-to-late-19th century, using Indian red, ochre and other earth colours with gold accents. However, almost all were repainted in a 1971 "renovation" in a very garish manner using artificial colouring and synthetic paint. |
