reminiscing_history Bringing ruins to life through digital art. Reimagining lost monuments with research, memory, and imagination. by Parnavi Bangar

Reminiscing History is a digital art series that brings old ruins back to life founded by Ar. Parnavi Bangar. Through research-based illustrations, we reimagine how destroyed monuments once looked. From Hampi to Angkor Wat, our work revives forgotten heritage and sparks curiosity about history. Each piece is rooted in real evidence and aims to add meaning, beauty, and memory to what time has taken away.

Not Sas Bahu, its Sahastrabahu Temple!

Built around 1093 CE by King Mahipala of the Kachchhapaghata dynasty, Gwalior’s famous Sas Bahu Temple is actually the Sahastrabahu Temple, dedicated to Vishnu. Set inside Gwalior Fort, this 11th-century twin temple complex is admired for its carved pillars, ornate ceilings, and refined North Indian temple design. Though partially ruined, its surviving stonework still reveals the scale and sophistication of medieval Indian craftsmanship.

Tucked inside Gwalior stands Moti Mahal. A royal palace built in the 19th century by Maharaja Jayajirao Scindia. Once the administrative heart of the Scindia state, it later hosted early legislative sessions after Independence. Which are painted in the palace today!

Today, parts of this grand structure are used for government and police offices, proving how history still survives in everyday life. Inside are ornate halls, European glass chandeliers, gold-leaf detailing, and a striking blend of Maratha, Bundeli, Hindu, and Gothic influences. A palace once made for power still serves power, just in a different form.
