A Folk Musician of Jaisalmer

Here is the Folk musician to which I visited during my tour to Rajasthan in 1999. This musician along with his fellow men used to sit beside the walls of forts and temples to stop the passerby, by playing folk lore on the local instrument called"sarangi". In this painting a part of a temple wall comprise the major portion of the frame on which the effect of the carved stone sculpture in relief is tactile.
