This article highlights the importance of a prominent festival, the Saptasvarupa Annakutotsava celebrated in Nathdwara in 1822, through an iconographic analysis of a miniature painting dated to 1822â1850 in the lacma collection. First, the essay delimits the area of investigation by briefly introducing the sect of Puá¹£á¹i MÄrg, its icons or svarÅ«ps, and the installation of its most important deity, ÅrÄ« NÄthjÄ«, at Nathdwara in 1672. Secondly, it analyzes the festival of 1822 as depicted in the painting. The final part of the study underlines the significance of the celebrations in the history of the sect by contextualizing the event with information drawn from secondary literature: it introduces some well-documented issues, such as the absence of the svarÅ«p of BÄlká¹á¹£á¹ajÄ« in the celebrations; it mentions some of the problems that Dauji, the head priest of the temple, had to overcome in the coordination of the festival, such as settling the disputes among the gosvÄmÄ«s of the sect; and it concludes with a comparative analysis of the Saptasvarupa Annakutotsava with two similar festivals held in Nathdwara in 1739â1740 and 1966 to emphasize the preeminence of the event of 1822 in the history of Puá¹£á¹i MÄrg.
