EDITORS COMMENTS
This bronze print showcases a remarkable piece of ancient art, depicting a woman fearlessly riding two Brahman bulls. Created between 2000-1750 B. C. , during the Indus Valley or Harappan Civilization, this sculpture stands at a height of 14 cm and is currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. The Indus Valley Civilization, alongside Ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia, played a significant role as one of the early cradles of civilization. Stretching across northwestern regions of South Asia from northeast Afghanistan to Pakistan and northwest India, this Bronze Age civilization thrived from 3300-1300 BC. The intricate details carved into this metalwork sculpture highlight the advanced artistic skills possessed by the Harappan people. The female figure exudes strength and grace as she confidently rides atop these powerful animals with their impressive horns. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back in time to an era where humans coexisted harmoniously with nature. It serves as a testament to the deep connection between humans and animals that has transcended throughout history. This print not only captures the beauty of ancient Indian culture but also reminds us of our shared human heritage. It invites us to appreciate the rich history embedded within each stroke and curve while marveling at how art can transcend time itself.
