EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate clay-based images of Durga, the ten-armed warrior goddess, created for the vibrant and grand Durga Puja festival in Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, India. The skilled craftsmanship and devotion of the artisans are evident in these stunning effigies that symbolize power and protection. The image captures a moment of intense focus as men meticulously work on sculpting these divine figures. Each stroke of their hands brings life to the clay, shaping every detail with precision and reverence. The vibrant colors used to adorn the sculptures add an enchanting touch to this artistic masterpiece. Durga Puja is one of India's most significant Hindu festivals celebrated with great fervor throughout the country. It honors Goddess Durga's triumph over evil forces and marks her visit to Earth along with her four children. Devotees gather in large numbers at beautifully decorated pandals (temporary structures) where these magnificent clay idols are worshipped for several days before being immersed in water bodies. Varanasi, also known as Benares, holds a special place during this festive season as it becomes adorned with countless such effigies like those captured in this photograph. This cultural extravaganza attracts people from all walks of life who come together to witness this religious spectacle filled with music, dance, rituals, and joyous celebrations. John Henry Claude Wilson/Robert Harding has masterfully captured not just a visual representation but also the essence of faith and tradition through his lens.
