Reviews Summary
Visitors rave about the Ranthambore School of Art, calling it a 'must-visit' for its incredibly life-like wildlife paintings and the opportunity to connect with the dedicated artists. It's praised as a soulful, offbeat experience that supports tiger conservation, offering a unique perspective beyond typical safaris.
"A must visit if you are visiting Ranthambore. The artists create life like paintings..met one artist named Rajesh Saini... the place left us speechless"
Malini
"Tiger/wildlife art is present all over the place in Ranthambore but what sets this place apart is you get to interact with the artists and interns that are actually in charge of creating the art. Also they seem to use sturdier canvas than what was on display in most other places. The charm of hearing the stories behind each painting adds a personal touch that was missing in other exhibits in Ranthambore. Also this is an NGO. We bought two pieces. Highly recommended."

"Please note this place can also ship and send u the canvas u desire and takes orders for paintings of animals and accept online payment too, all definitely worth any amount of money... Now for the review of the place...
A small space.. but so full of soul. For people coming to connect with nature here.. and with animals... This place provides u portraits that allow u to peer into the lives and souls of these animals... Like a photo but so much more it appears...
Probably because of all the work that goes into recreating a photo. But that effort in the viewers mind translates to a emotional bond with those animals.
Lovely people too and overall a very wholesome experience from the most unexpected of places."
