EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "A prince and companions hunting blackbuck, c. 1670-80" takes us back to the late seventeenth century in India. The artwork, created by the Mughal School, showcases a group of men engaged in an exhilarating hunt amidst a picturesque landscape. The image captures the essence of camaraderie and adventure as these men embark on their sporting expedition. With an elevated view, we witness the prince and his companions aiming their shots at majestic blackbucks roaming freely in their natural habitat. The composition beautifully portrays the friendship between these individuals from Indian royalty, highlighting both their regal stature and love for outdoor activities. The hilly terrain adds depth to the scene while a serene lake glistens under the warm sunlight. Painted with watercolors, this historic artwork reflects not only the artistic prowess of its creators but also provides valuable insights into Indian culture during that era. It is a testament to Islamic art influences prevalent at that time. As we admire this piece, we are transported to an olden time when hunting was considered both a sport and a display of power among nobility. This print serves as a reminder of our rich heritage and invites us to appreciate nature's beauty intertwined with human endeavors.
