A quiet reverence radiates from Whispers of a Perfumed Garden, a piece inspired by the sacred, echo-filled halls of Akbar the Great’s Tomb. Malti traces the delicate carvings and domes of Mughal architecture with luminous linework, layered over a wash of soft jade, bronze, and pearl tones. Ethereal white blossoms drift upward like memory, each one a tribute to the whispered stories and enduring love said to linger in this space — where legend tells us a garden was laid in honor of a beloved wife.
More than a painting, this piece feels like a prayer — a meditation on devotion, beauty, and the transcendence of time. Malti invites viewers to look closely, to honor what endures, and to feel the stillness between the stones and petals.
