Reviews Of Tambekar Wada
Vadodara (Baroda), Gujarat, India
Tambekar Wada is a hidden gem in Vadodara's old city, offering a rare and exquisite glimpse into the domestic architecture and artistic sensibilities of the Maratha era, particularly during the Gaekwad rule. This historical mansion, or 'wada' (a traditional Maratha house with a courtyard), dates ba ck to the late 18th or early 19th century and was once the residence of Bhau Tambekar, a dewan (prime minister) of the Gaekwad state. Its unassuming exterior belies the artistic treasures within. The primary highlight of Tambekar Wada is its remarkable collection of intricate murals and frescoes that adorn almost every surface of its interior walls and ceilings. These vibrant paintings, executed in the traditional Maratha style, depict a wide array of themes, including mythological scenes from Hindu epics (Ramayana, Mahabharata), historical events, portraits of Gaekwad rulers and other dignitaries, social customs, and daily life scenes from the period. The use of natural pigments has ensured that many of these colors remain remarkably vivid even after centuries. The architectural elements, such as wooden pillars, carved doorways, and courtyards, further enhance the historical ambiance. The Wada is a multi-storied structure, and exploring its various rooms and corridors, each revealing new painted narratives, feels like stepping into a living canvas. It provides a unique insight into the private lives, religious beliefs, and artistic patronage of the Maratha elite. Often less crowded than major tourist attractions, Tambekar Wada offers a more intimate and profound cultural experience. For art historians, culture enthusiasts, and anyone seeking to explore the less-trodden paths of Vadodara's heritage, Tambekar Wada is an absolute must-visit, truly showcasing the city's artistic depth beyond its grand palaces.
