| DescriptionA fresco from a ‘Samadhi’ depicting ‘Santhiya’ being taught.jpg |
English: A fresco from a ‘Samadhi’ depicting ‘Santhiya’ being taught. Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji had taught Gurbani Santhiya to 48 Singhs at Damdama Sahib.
Detail of a mural depicting a santhiya scene, from from the Bhai Dalla familial samadh [samadhi; alt. known as 'Samaadh Bhai Dall Singh'] at Talwandi Sabo, ca.1710–40. The image shows a traditional Sikh learning scene with students. This is detail of a fresco depicting the santhiya of 48 [forty-eight] Sikhs at Talwandi Sabo, by Bhai Mani Singh under the request of Guru Gobind Singh. Dating: K. C. Aryan dated the frescoes of the Dalla familial samadh to between 1710 and 1740. Thus, they are one of the earliest surviving examples of Sikh murals. However, there is a fresco depicting Maharaja Ranjit Singh, raising questions about the reliability of the 18th century dating, they may have been painted later during the first half of the 19th century due to this.
