EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a folio from the Kathasaritsagara, believed to have been created around 1590. The artist behind this masterpiece remains unknown, adding an air of mystery and intrigue to the piece. The image transports us back to 16th century Hindoostan (India), where vibrant colors and intricate details were used to depict scenes from literature and mythology. In this particular folio, we see a mesmerizing blend of opaque watercolor, gold ink, and gold on paper. At first glance, our attention is drawn towards two majestic bullocks pulling a cart through lush vegetation. These animals symbolize strength and vitality in Indian culture. As we explore further, we notice a mythical creature with wings perched atop one of the trees - an enchanting addition that adds an element of fantasy. A lone male figure stands nearby, his presence evoking curiosity about his role within this narrative. Surrounding him are various plants and trees that contribute to the overall composition's richness. This extraordinary artwork not only captures nature's beauty but also reflects India's rich literary heritage. It serves as a reminder of how art can transport us across time and space while preserving cultural traditions. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this folio invites viewers to delve into its intricacies while pondering upon the untold stories it holds within its golden hues.
