EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the artwork "Vol. 2 fol. 228 Hanuman beheads Trisiras" created by an Indian School in the 16th century. Measuring 27.5x15.2 cm, this masterpiece is composed of opaque watercolor, ink, and gold on paper, displaying exquisite craftsmanship. The scene depicted in this artwork originates from the Ramayana of Valmiki, a renowned Hindu epic poem. It portrays Hanuman, a revered deity in Hinduism, triumphantly beheading Trisiras, a mythical character known for his malevolence. With its intricate details and vibrant colors enhanced by gold accents, this piece immerses viewers into a world of legend and mythology. The manuscript's delicate brushwork brings to life fantastic animals and characters from ancient tales. Housed at the Freer Gallery of Art within the Smithsonian Institution in the USA, this remarkable acquisition was generously gifted by Charles Lang Freer himself. Its presence enriches our understanding of Mughal dynasty artistry while offering insights into Hindi religious beliefs and cultural heritage. As we delve into this mesmerizing composition filled with symbolism and poetic resonance, we are reminded of how art can transcend time and space to connect us with ancient traditions that continue to shape our present-day existence.
