The compilation of music data, offered by Maharaja Sawai Pratap Sinha Deo of Jaipur (1779-1804) in his Hindi work entitled Sangīta-sāra, gives the iconography as well as the note structure of a large variety of rāgas. The iconographical notes giving the image (svarūpa) are in prose, and are mere paraphrases of well known Sanskrit texts as will appear from the specimens cited below. The author has cited several new rāgas of which, four quoted here, may be found interesting.
