Medieval History

The Palas Dynasty



Gopala

After the collapse of Harshvardhana Empire and before Gopala became a King, north India was full of independent states and small kingdoms.
They used to fight over each other for control and power, either there was no law and order. The foreigner took advantage of this situation and invade to the country.
During this period Gopala became the king of Bengal.
Gopala was the founder of the Pala Dynasty!
According to the sources, he brought law and order to his region.
Gopala had a son Dharmapala, and he descended his throne to his son.

Dharmapala

He is the one one who brought Bengal and Bihar towards his control.
He followed Buddhism, and he encouraged learning a lot. He even constructed the Vikramashila Unversity.

Devapala

The son of Dharmapala. He occupied Asam and Kalinga. He defeated many Rajput lands and took over Bihar.
He had an extraordinary love for Art. So, he constructed the Mahabodhi Temple and several more temples in his region.
After the Devapala, there was no worthy ruler to rule, which became the reason for the downfall of the Palas Dynasty.

Some insights
The Palas maintained friendly relations with South East Asia. Which includes Shailendra kings of Shrivijaya- Indonesia.

Revealing the Timeless Beauty: Crafting a Greek Woman's Portrait

Dear Esteemed Readers, I am absolutely delighted to unveil the captivating journey behind the creation of this exquisite women's portrait. Our source of inspiration hails from the timeless elegance of a Greek woman. In the annals of Ancient Greece, the epitome of beauty lay in three quintessential elements: symmetry, proportion, and harmony. Their visages were adorned with delicate contours and cascading waves of hair, epitomizing the very essence of grace. The heritage of the Greeks unfolds as a tapestry of shared physical traits—olive-hued skin, rich brown eyes, and gracefully straight noses. Complementing these features, one often finds luxuriant tresses of dark hair, elegantly carved cheekbones, and visages bearing the hallmark of a rectangular grace. Allow me to share the very palette that brought this vision to life: A pristine canvas The vibrant embrace of oil paints, delicately thinned with linseed oil A carefully curated array of paintbrushes The final touch of metallic pa...

Why People Should Buy Your Art

Dear Reader Do you pay attention? Do you know what successful people doing right now? Let me help you: They are talking constantly They accept risk every day They are focused! Follow me on  Twitter | Facebook | Instagram | Pinterest | Youtube .  These are the artists who are recognised in your society. The ones who are “making it”. Some artists turn to online sales to get aside from having to talk to people. They are shy or don't know how to talk about their art.  Unfortunately, that's the reason they won’t be successful online either.  You can’t build a website, sneak behind the pretty pictures, and wait for the sales to move in. When people find you, you’ve got to be ready for them. Drill talking about your art and yourself. Start conversations.  Connect with people online. The question is why people want to buy your art. We know you are talented but let's don't forget there are many talented people out there. So, how can you stand out from the crowd? Well, l...
