Abstract
This research paper is a serious endeavour to unravel the artistic treasures in the permanent collection of Central Sikh Museum at Amritsar and it throws light on rare collection of historical as well as religious paintings, manuscripts and other artefacts and weaponry. The museum has a unique distinction of being the largest Sikh museum containing Sikh art and creations of some of the doyens of Sikh art and is famous all over the world. This is perhaps the first-ever of the researcher to deal with all aspects of art and aesthetics of Sikh art and systematically documents its precious collection.
