EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating artwork titled "Balarama with His Ploughshare at the Jamna River" transports viewers to ancient India, offering a glimpse into the rich tapestry of religious and cultural traditions. Created by an Indian School artist in the 17th century, this exquisite print measures 18 x 22.6 cm and is housed in the San Diego Museum of Art. Depicting Balarama, a revered deity in Hinduism, the painting showcases his divine presence as he stands alongside his ploughshare at the tranquil Jamna River. The opulent use of watercolors and gold accents on paper adds an ethereal quality to this spiritual masterpiece. Amidst a breathtaking landscape teeming with vibrant wildlife, including peacocks and fish swimming gracefully in the river's depths, Balarama embodies both power and serenity. With his coupling mechanism hitched to an agricultural vehicle nearby, he symbolizes fertility and abundance associated with farming practices. This artwork not only celebrates Balarama's role as a god but also pays homage to India's agrarian heritage. It highlights how agriculture was deeply intertwined with spirituality during that era.
