EDITORS COMMENTS
Vrishaketu's Valiant Act: A Scene from the Mahabharata This 19th century image depicts the heroic moment from the Indian epic poem, the Mahabharata, when Prince Vrishaketu shoots his brother Babhruvahana into the air on a circle of arrows. The scene is rendered in opaque watercolor on paper, showcasing the intricate details of the characters and their surroundings. The two princes, dressed in traditional Indian attire, are depicted in a dramatic pose, with Vrishaketu aiming his bow and arrow at Babhruvahana, who ascends into the sky, seemingly unharmed, encircled by a semi-circle of arrows. The beige and brown tones of the painting add to the earthy and authentic feel, transporting us to the rich heritage of ancient India. The Mahabharata, an epic Sanskrit poem, is one of the two major Sanskrit epics of ancient India, the other being the Ramayana. The poem is set in the Indian subcontinent, and its narrative revolves around the Kurukshetra war, a battle between two branches of the Kuru dynasty for the throne of Hastinapura. This folio, which is part of a larger collection, is a testament to the enduring legacy of Indian art and literature. The intricate details of the painting, from the intricately designed weapons to the expressive faces of the characters, reveal the skill and artistry of the unknown artist. The scene of Vrishaketu shooting Babhruvahana is a powerful reminder of the themes of brotherhood, loyalty, and the consequences of war that are central to the Mahabharata.
