EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "The Royal Tour, Buddhist Priests exhibiting Buddhas Tooth in the Temple at Kandy" takes us back to a momentous event in Sri Lankan history. The image showcases a group of Buddhist priests proudly displaying the sacred relic - Buddha's Tooth - within the magnificent temple grounds of Kandy. Captured by artist Henry Marriott Paget and published in The Graphic on May 11th, 1901, this illustration offers a glimpse into an important royal tour that took place during that time. As part of their visit to Sri Lanka (formerly known as Ceylon), members of royalty were given the privilege to witness this revered artifact firsthand. The composition exudes an air of reverence and spirituality as we see the priests adorned in traditional attire, standing with utmost respect around the tooth relic. Their serene expressions and graceful gestures convey deep devotion and honor towards this sacred symbol. The intricate details captured through engraving techniques bring out the grandeur of both the temple architecture and religious artifacts surrounding them. This print serves as a testament to Sri Lanka's rich cultural heritage and its significance within Buddhism. "The Royal Tour" lithograph not only documents an extraordinary moment but also invites viewers to appreciate the beauty and spiritual significance embedded within this ancient tradition. It stands as a timeless reminder of our shared human connection through faith, culture, and history.
