EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning piece of art, a painted and lacquered box with an ivory fringe. Created in the Deccani region around 1660, this exquisite work is attributed to the Indian School of the 17th century. Currently housed at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, UK, this artwork reflects the rich cultural heritage of India. The box itself is adorned with intricate paintings that depict Hindu gods and goddesses, specifically Radha and Krishna. The vibrant colors used in these depictions bring out the energy and divine aura surrounding these deities. The addition of an ivory fringe adds a touch of elegance to this already remarkable piece. Crafted using papier mache technique, this box represents not only artistic skill but also traditional craftsmanship prevalent during that era. The attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke and lacquer finish applied to create a smooth surface. Through this photograph, we are transported back in time to appreciate the beauty and significance of South Indian artistry. It serves as a reminder of how art has always been an integral part of human expression across different cultures throughout history.
