Ustad Bashir Ahmed, born in 1954 in Lahore, Pakistan, is an esteemed miniature painter and a pivotal educator in the field of traditional Mughal miniature art. Educated at the National College of Arts, Lahore, he later ascended to head its Miniature Painting Department, profoundly influencing the modern revival of this intricate craft. His work meticulously preserves the rich heritage of Mughal miniatures while subtly integrating contemporary themes, bridging the historical with the modern. Trained by notable masters Haji Mohammad Sharif and Shaikh Shujaullah, Ahmed's paintings are celebrated for their precision and adherence to traditional techniques, yet they resonate with modern audiences through their thematic exploration of cultural identity and social narratives. Living and working in Lahore, Ustad Bashir Ahmed continues to mentor young artists at the National College of Arts, fostering a new generation of miniaturists who are encouraged to explore and expand the boundaries of this age-old art form. His contributions to the field have not only enriched the cultural tapestry of Pakistan but have also ensured the continuity and evolution of miniature painting in the contemporary art scene.
