Description: The en:Indian Constitution en:preamble
Title: Constitution of India
Credit: http://www.loc.gov/exhibits/world/images/wt0070_1s.jpg Originally from en.wikipedia; description page is/was here. Beohar Rammanohar Sinha illuminated, beautified and decorated the original manuscript calligraphed by Prem Behari Narain Raizada. Beohar Rammanohar Sinha's legible short-signature in Devanagari-script as Ram on the Preamble-page (lower-right corner within the outermost border-design), and as Rammanohar on other pages of the Constitution bear unambiguous testimony to this fact. He was the favorite disciple of Nandalal Bose. After finishing the Constitution, some leftover art-material was carefully preserved by the artist which he bequeathed to his son Beohar Dr Anupam Sinha.
Author: Illumination/ornamentation by Beohar Rammanohar Sinha, calligraphy by Prem Behari Narain Raizada.
