Sonali Shah takes a look at four great artists and works that have birthed other forms of art
MUSIC
As Tupac Shakur lay in the hospital battling for life in 1996, he drew comfort from the strains of singer-songwriter Don McLean's 'Vincent'. An ode to van Gogh's life, the emotional elegy seeks to comfort the misunderstood artist.

Along with artworks, McLean had devoured several books on van Gogh's life, and wanted to set the record straight for him; that van Gogh suffered heavily from mental illnesses. He wrote the massively popular song Vincent, with a direct nod to the masterpiece The Starry Night.

He related with and understood the pain of the artist, and through Vincent, he says as much. 'This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you,' he sings.

The Subtle Grandeur of Narain Niwas Palace
There's a kind of quiet that belongs only to old homes. At Narain Niwas Palace, it hums in the walls, drifts through the painted corridors, and settles among the mango and tamarind trees. Built in 1928 by General Amar Singh Ji Kanota as a retreat from the city's noise, the palace remains under the care of his family. Its fifty-two rooms, each carrying its own blend of antique furniture and hand-painted detail, feel more like a home still in use than a hotel on display. The pale lime walls seem to hold sunlight long after dusk, and the courtyards breathe with the slow rhythm of a place untouched by time.
