Portrait of Krishna Giving Knowledge of Bhagvad Gita to Arjun In Original Copy of Constitution of India, 1950.
The original manuscripts of our Constitution in English and Hindi were handcrafted. The exquisite calligraphy of Shri Prem Bihari Narain Raizada in the English version and the intricate and stunning illuminated art works and borders created by Shri Nandalal Bose and his students from Shanti Niketan not only made the pathbreaking document a visual delight for generations but also ensured that the Constitution provided a glimpse into the rich culture, varied heritage and illustrious past of India that is Bharat.
The 22 pieces of art that embellish our Constitution are by very definition not exhaustive in nature but when woven together in this document of unparalleled importance bring to life a captivating portrait of the diverse culture and timeless civilisation of India that is Bharat.
