Lok Virsa Pehchaan / Rebel Queen: Maharani Jindan Kaur
« on: March 26, 2011, 03:04:10 PM »
Maharani Jindan Kaur`s life much of which was spent raging against the British empire for cheating her out of the Punjab, then a vast country stretching from the Khyber Pass to Kashmir is the subject of a film called Rebel Queen, which premiered at New York`s International Sikh film festival.
Beautifully painted- Maharani Jindan Kaur Ji.
By George Richmond,1863. oil paints, gold frame.


Her revolt began when her husband Ranjit Singh, the last Maharaja of Punjab, died of a stroke in 1839 and the British tried to wrest the kingdom from the heir to the throne, her infant son, Duleep Singh. During her rule as regent, Jindan waged two disastrous wars against the British that led to the annexation of the Punjab. She may have made huge strategic errors due to her military inexperience and young age (she was in her early 20s), but Jindan was a fierce ruler. British historian Peter Bance describes her as a “very gutsy woman”. “She stood her ground against the British . . . she actively took charge of the Punjab.”

Christy Campbell, author of The Maharajah`s Box, a book about the Maharani`s son, Duleep, says Jindan was “one of the most remarkable characters of 19th-century history, let alone Indian or Sikh history.”

The Maharani was described as “a serious obstacle” to British rule in India. They launched a smear campaign to discredit her, painting her as the “Messalina of the Punjab”, a seductress too rebellious to be controlled. She refused to co-operate and the British saw that her influence on Duleep could lead to an uprising among the Punjabi people. They decided to separate mother and son.

Nine-year-old Duleep was taken to England where he converted to Christianity, living the life of a typical English gentleman, with Queen Victoria among his friends. The Maharani Jindan, however, was dragged from the court of Lahore by her hair and thrown into the fortress of Sheikhupura and then Chunar Fort in Uttar Pradesh.

After being imprisoned, she disguised herself as a servant and escaped the fort. She travelled through 1,200 kilometres of forest to reach sanctuary in Nepal, where she wrote a letter boasting to the British that she had escaped by “magic”. She never regained the kingdom for her son. But they were reunited years later, which prompted the Maharajah to convert back to Sikhism, undoing the work of the British to “brainwash” him.

Her story encouraged American entrepreneur Bicky Singh to fund the production of Rebel Queen with around $25,000. Director Michael Singh, a California-based film-maker, says: “There`s great drama and tragedy in her story. She was a heroic figure and was well-documented by the British.

News Khabran / Portrait of Maharaja Ranjit Singh on auction in NYC
« on: March 22, 2011, 09:51:07 PM »
A portrait of Sikh ruler Maharaja Ranjit Singh made by celebrated artist Sobha Singh will go under hammer in the US in March, an official of Singh’s art gallery said on Friday. The painting has been listed for auction at the renowned New York-based auction house Sotheby’s on March 24.

“We received a communication from Anuradha Ghosh-Mazumdar, assistant vice-president of Indian and Southeast Asian Art at Sotheby’s that the painting of Maharaja Ranjit Singh by Sobha Singh will be featured in the auction,” Hriday Paul Singh, general secretary of Sobha Singh Memorial Art Society in Kangra, told IANS.

Paul, who is a grandson of Sobha Singh, said the auction house has listed the painting for $300,000-$400,000.

The oil-on-canvas portrait is 39 by 29 inches in size. The Sobha Singh gallery has its replica, he added.

The gallery, visited by around 25,000 art lovers every year, is located in the picturesque Andretta village near Palampur in Kangra Valley of Himachal Pradesh, some 250 km from Shimla, where Sobha Singh spent 38 years.

According to Sotheby’s catalogue preview, the portrait shows the Maharaja seated on a lion-crested silver throne wearing a richly brocaded coat and a jewelled turban, his sword resting on his lap.


Sobha Singh, whose 110th birth anniversary falls November 29, 2011, achieved acclaim for his strikingly beautiful paintings, particularly after he made in 1969 the portrait of Guru Nanak Dev for the 500th birth anniversary of the first Sikh master.

The artist made Andretta his home, and painted over 50 portraits of freedom fighters, including Bhagat Singh in 1981. The government of India conferred Padma Shri on him in 1983.

“The government should do something to get his work back to the country,” Paul added. Sobha Singh, who died in Chandigarh Aug 22, 1986, at the age of 85, left behind more than 2,000 works of his art.
