EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Junagadh and the Mekranis" takes us back to 19th century India, showcasing a mesmerizing engraving by an English School artist. The image captures the essence of Junagadh, a city rich in history and culture. The scene unfolds with great detail, revealing a bird shelter nestled amidst the stunning topography of Junagadh. As we follow the steps leading up to a Buddhist cave temple on Mount Girnar, our eyes are drawn to the grandeur of the temple gate standing proudly at its peak. In this momentous occasion, we witness royalty in action as His Highness (HH) The Nawab of Junagadh fulfills his duty alongside native guards. The presence of Mekranis and Jains further emphasizes the diversity and unity within Indian society. The engraving also commemorates Lord Reay's visit to Junagadh, highlighting its significance as an important destination for influential figures during that era. From Bhariava Jap rituals performed at Adi Chadi Well to Parabara festivities celebrated throughout Junagadh, this image encapsulates various aspects of Indian culture. As we delve into this historical masterpiece captured by Bridgeman Images from their Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection, it is impossible not to appreciate the beauty and richness that Asia has contributed to world heritage. This print serves as a reminder of India's glorious past while celebrating its vibrant present-day traditions.
