Truest example of who a jathedar of Sri Akal Takht should be. A true Akali Gursikh who fought on the front lines with no fear.

Nice share. Love it. Don't think I've seen that image before.

It's a really beautiful painting of Baba ji depicting his last battle, fighting on top of the war elephant before attaining shaheedi fighting against the Afghans. I think the fresco was published by Kashi House.

Kashi House adapted this fresco to create this so we can get a better idea of the original fresco in a way. What a site though! The Akali Nihangs of SatGuru Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji Maharaj standing off against the Afghans. I advise everyone to watch the video as it goes into detail about the battle. Really inspirational. 

Another shot of the fresco to include the Afghans.

Any ideas of the location of the fresco?

Just found this on twitter:

Mid 19th century Fresco. Raja Suchet Singh’s Palace. Ramnagar, Udhampur, Jammu.

Interesting that the fresco is not in Panjab or NWFP.
