Summary

DescriptionNihang and Nihangni, by Kehar Singh.jpg
English: Nihang and Nihangni (female Nihang). The Nihangni appears to have her hair in top knot (maybe a keski). She wears a salwar and kameez (or possibly ghagra and suthan) and carries a chakar and mala around her neck and a Mala in her hand. This 19th century sketch of a Sikh Nihang couple is likely to be drawn by Kehar Singh Musawar of Lahore and Amritsar.

This painting is kept at the Government Museum and Art Gallery, Chandigarh. It depicts a Akali-Nihang Sikh man, possibly with his wife.
