Desa Singh Majithia

Desa Singh Majithia (1768–1832) was a Sikh jagirdar, military general, and statesman. He was perhaps one of the earliest Sikh patrons of artwork through the employment of Pahari artists during the period of 1810–30 when he served as governor of the hill states of the Punjab Hills. Desa served as a jagirdar from 1788 to 1832.
