EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the awe-inspiring depiction of Indra, the Vedic King of the gods and a prominent deity in Hinduism. Engraved by Marlet et Cie in a stunning colour litho, this artwork by Louis Thomas Bardel beautifully captures the essence of Indra's divine power. Indra is portrayed with majestic grandeur, adorned with symbols that epitomize his strength and wealth. A resplendent crown rests upon his head, signifying his regal status as ruler of the gods. In one hand, he holds a mighty sword, representing his prowess in battle and protection against evil forces. The prayer beads draped around his neck symbolize devotion and spiritual enlightenment. What truly sets this portrayal apart is how Indra's eyes cover his entire body - an extraordinary feature that emphasizes his all-seeing nature as a god who oversees every aspect of existence. His elaborate headdress further accentuates his divine presence. Riding atop a royal elephant, Indra exudes authority and majesty as he traverses through celestial realms. This magnificent creature represents not only power but also wisdom and loyalty. The artist skillfully captures the essence of Hindu mythology through intricate details such as Devendren (the name given to elephants ridden by deities) and Mala (prayer beads). This remarkable piece from The Stapleton Collection serves as a testament to both Indian culture and religious beliefs.
