There are two legible inscriptions, one below the figure of Pārśvanātha and the other below the figure of Śāntinātha, on the roll, which tell us that the scroll was painted in Samvat 1490 (A.D. 1433), by the order of two patrons Koṭhārī Vāghāka and Sāha Guṇiyaka, both hailing from Chāmpāner in Gujarāt and both belonging to Prāgvāṭ, the modern Porwāl community.
