https://www.loc.gov/exhibits/world/images/wt0070_1s.jpg Originally from en.wikipedia; description page is/was here.Beohar Rammanohar Sinha illuminated, beautified and decorated the original manuscript calligraphed by Prem Behari Narain Raizada. Beoher Rammanohar Sinha's legible short-signature in Devanagari-script as Ram on the Preamble-page (lower-right corner within the outermost border-design), and as rammanohar on other pages of the Constitution bear unambiguous testimony to this fact. He was the favorite disciple of Nandalal Bose. After finishing the Constitution, some leftover art-material was carefully preserved by the artist which he bequeathed to his son Beohar Dr Anupam Sinha.
