Miniature is a traditional painting style of the Subcontinent. Artists of great talent have explored it and created masterpieces. This art form was encouraged by the Ghaznavids, Ghorids and Sultanate kings and reached its peak during the Mughal Period. Large ateliers were patronized by the rulers. These ateliers consisted of not only the painters but also the paper makers, pigment makers and binders were an integral part of the set up. Among these, the role that was played by the pigment makers was of high value. They utilized organic and inorganic ingredients, ancient methods and techniques to produce colours that were meant to last forever. Present research is focused on the materials and methods employed for the production of two pigments black and white, which were used for calligraphy, painting and illumination.
