Indian, 1692–1715

The Stipple Master was an Indian artist active in the region of Mewar, particularly in Udaipur, from approximately 1692 to 1715. He is recognized for his unique stippling technique, which involved creating images through a series of small dots, a method that distinguished his work from that of his contemporaries. The Stipple Master is attributed with a number of significant paintings that reflect the cultural and artistic milieu of Rajasthan during the late 17th and early 18th centuries. His works often depict court scenes, religious themes, and portraits, showcasing the intricate details and vibrant colors typical of Rajput painting. Although little is known about his personal life and training, his contributions to Indian art are notable for their technical innovation and aesthetic appeal. His legacy continues to influence artists in the region and is an important part of the history of Indian miniature painting.
