EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph takes us back in time to the vibrant landscapes of 19th century Punjab, India. The image showcases an Indian-style post-chaise making its way between Loudiana and Amritsar, with a sandstorm brewing in the distance. The night sky adds an air of mystery as torches illuminate the scene, casting long shadows on the ground. The focus of the print is undoubtedly the regal figure seated inside the chaise. Dressed in traditional attire and adorned with a headscarf, this prince exudes power and elegance as he travels through his kingdom. Accompanied by a group of male attendants carrying scarves, their presence signifies both protection and status. The mode of transportation itself is fascinating - a palanquin-like sedan chair carried by strong individuals who navigate through challenging terrain. This method was not only practical but also symbolized royalty and luxury during that era. Soltykoff's meticulous engraving captures every intricate detail, allowing us to appreciate both the historical significance and artistic beauty within this print from Voyages in India (1859). It serves as a visual testament to India's rich cultural heritage while transporting us back to an enchanting time when journeys were filled with adventure and discovery.
