EDITORS COMMENTS
Marius Bauer's captivating watercolor sketch, Horsemen in front of a niche with a statue of a Hindu god, dates back to the 1920s. The image transports us to an exotic and mystical land, where horsemen in vibrant attire confidently approach a niche adorned with a revered Hindu deity. The archway, a fusion of architectural styles, frames the scene, drawing our gaze to the intricately carved statue and the devoted figures before it. Bauer's masterful use of color and chalk brings the scene to life, with the rich reds and yellows of the horsemen's clothing contrasting against the cool blues and greens of the niche and the lush foliage behind. The horses, with their powerful forms and expressive eyes, add an element of energy and action to the tranquil setting. The horsemen, dressed as representatives of Hindu, Buddhist, or Jain faiths, pay homage to the deity, their respectful gestures and solemn expressions reflecting the deep spiritual connection between the people and their religious beliefs. This poignant moment in time is captured in Bauer's sketches, offering a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the 20th century. Marius Alexander Jacques Bauer, a Swiss artist, skillfully conveys the essence of this sacred encounter, inviting us to ponder the depth and significance of religious practices and the role they play in shaping our understanding of the world and ourselves.
