EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing world of an Indian Snake Charmer with a Cobra. The image, taken from a French album of drawings dating back to the 18th century, is a remarkable example of colour lithography. The snake charmer, belonging to the Indian School, exudes an air of mysticism and enchantment as he kneels before his audience. With his magical flute in hand, he skillfully communicates with the cobra emerging from its basket. The musician's serene expression suggests a deep connection between man and serpent. The vibrant colours used in this artwork bring life to every detail - from the intricate patterns on the charmer's clothing to the scales on the cobra's majestic body. It is evident that this piece was created by skilled hands who sought to capture not only physical beauty but also evoke emotions through their art. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported into a realm where magic and music intertwine seamlessly. We can almost hear the haunting melody emanating from that mystical pipe as it casts its spell over both man and beast. This photograph print serves as a testament to centuries-old traditions and cultural practices that continue to captivate our imagination today. It invites us into an ancient world where snake charming holds both fascination and reverence for those who witness it firsthand.
