Pandharpuri Tambura
Not on view
This beautiful nineteenth-century tambura is one of the best examples to be preserved from that period in a museum. It has a gourd body attached to a wood neck and belly. It is decorated with bone and ivory inlay and paintings of mythological figures in the South Indian Mysore style.
