Answer: Amer The Jaipur School of painting originated in its former capital Amer, which was nearest of all large Rajput states to Mughal capitals — Agra and Delhi. Rulers of Jaipur from the earliest times maintained cordial relations with the Mughal emperors, who strongly influenced the aesthetics at Amer. Raja Bharmal (1548–1575) married his daughter to Akbar. His son Bhagwant Das (1575–1592) was a close friend of Akbar and his son Man Singh, in turn, was Akbar’s most trusted general. |
