The annual 12-day Miniature Painting Camp organised by the North Zone Culture Centre, which kicked off on January 1, concluded at Kalagram here today.

The theme of the workshop this year was ‘raagmala’, which is a virtual and visual reflection of the diverse musical modes (ragas) of the traditional Indian classical music.

Programme in-charge Yashwinder Sharma said that the North Zone Culture Centre had invited 14 acclaimed miniature artists from across Himachal Pradesh and Rajasthan to showcase their works. Each artist had been tasked with creating two paintings during the 12-day long activity.

Miniature painting legend from Chamba (HP), Padamshri Vijay Sharma said that the participating artists were focusing on the traditional Kangra School style.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
