EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Bhysties of Delhi" transports us back to 19th century India, offering a glimpse into the daily life and customs of the people in Delhi. The intricate details captured by the English School artist showcase a scene filled with cultural richness and historical significance.
The image is part of a series called "Rays from the East or Illustrations of the Holy Scriptures," published by the Religious Tract Society around 1870. It provides viewers with an intimate look at the Bhysties, who were likely servants or workers in Delhi during that time.
Through this engraving, we are invited to explore not only the physical appearance but also the mannerisms and etiquette prevalent in Middle Eastern societies. The meticulous attention to detail by the engraver brings these characters to life, allowing us to immerse ourselves in their world.
As we study this piece further, we can appreciate its contribution to our understanding of Indian culture and history. It serves as a valuable reminder of how art can transcend time and space, connecting us with distant lands and traditions. This print is truly a treasure trove for those interested in exploring different facets of Asia's past through visual storytelling.
