Description
A few of us from the "Art Society of India" travelled to Jaisalmer for landscape painting en plein air.
Jaisalmer is a city in the north of India, in the state of Rajasthan. It is known as the "Golden city" because all of its architecture is made of yellow sandstone and all of them are exquisitely sculptured. It is situated in the heart of the Thar desert.
Haveli is a traditional mansion in India. Havelis were the elaborate homes of rich merchants, in the times gone by. Today, they have historical and architectural significance.
In Jaisalmer, there are havelis that are hundreds of years old. They are carved from yellow sandstone. Some of these have many floors and countless rooms, with decorated windows, archways, doors, and balconies.
