New kings constructed chatris for their late fathers as statements legitimacy. During periods of political upheaval patrons introduced new forms and decorations to respond to current events and evoke a particular past.

It also compares the chatris to other Rajput arts to understand how arts of different media targeted specific audiences"--Provided by publisher. | |
