Do people notice how the artist here seems to have purposefully shown the Sikhs in varying shades from dark to light skinned. 

That should be a heads up for the more ignorant amongst us.

Yeah I  noticed that, I like how the artist did that. Some of them also have greying beards, a lot of detail in that painting.  Cant find the full painting though

Painting from baba atal rai gurdwara. It's of guru Nanak being born and all the deities greeting him. 

The murals in baba atal rai tower were painted by artists Jaimal Singh Naqqash, Mehtab Singh Naqqash and Hukum Singh in the mid 19th century and were inspired by the bhai bala janamsakhi

in A lot of these old paintings guru ji has been depicted with a dog walking near his horse, what did this symbolize? you dont see this in modern paintings. dont dogs symbolize loyalty ?    or did guru ji keeps dogs too ?
