Mukharji wrote a book in 1888 AD on the Art Manufactures of India. In it is a reference of a nail work sent by Baba Miran Baksh of Lahore, which was exhibited in Calcutta in 1888 AD, and valued at Rs 15. A grand sum at that time. As a student M.A. Rahman Chughtai recalled a long nail of Baba Miran Baksh, while he was a student at the Naqashi School of Wazeer Khan Mosque, Lahore. Obviously he would try the venture himself. Very few specimens of Chughtai&#8217;s nail works are left and we reproduce one, with an artificial tint, so that the work can be recognized at glance. It is a RADHA KRISHNA nail work, and very interesting for that time. We could date it from about 1915 to 1918 AD perhaps.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">We always present unusual information about Chughtai Art. Here is one that few would have known. So enjoy this too!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3600\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3600\" style=\"width: 202px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Nail-Work-by-Baba-Miran-Baksh.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3600\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Nail-Work-by-Baba-Miran-Baksh-202x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"202\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Nail-Work-by-Baba-Miran-Baksh-202x300.jpg 202w, http:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Nail-Work-by-Baba-Miran-Baksh.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 202px) 100vw, 202px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3600\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Nail Work by Baba Miran Baksh<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3601\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3601\" style=\"width: 204px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Nail-Work-of-M-A-Rahman-Chughtai.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3601\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Nail-Work-of-M-A-Rahman-Chughtai-204x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"204\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Nail-Work-of-M-A-Rahman-Chughtai-204x300.jpg 204w, http:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Nail-Work-of-M-A-Rahman-Chughtai-698x1024.jpg 698w, http:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Nail-Work-of-M-A-Rahman-Chughtai.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 204px) 100vw, 204px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3601\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Nail Work of M A Rahman Chughtai<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3599\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3599\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Mukharji-reference-Miran-Baksh-Nail-Work.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3599\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Mukharji-reference-Miran-Baksh-Nail-Work-300x116.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"116\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Mukharji-reference-Miran-Baksh-Nail-Work-300x116.jpg 300w, http:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Mukharji-reference-Miran-Baksh-Nail-Work.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3599\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mukharji reference Miran Baksh Nail Work<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KHATT NAKUN (NAIL WORK) OF BABA MIRAN BAKSH NAIL WORK OF HIS STUDENT M.A. RAHMAN CHUGHTAI An exhibition was being planned in Glasgow and as a result of this T.N.
