EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 16th century folio, hailing from the Indian subcontinent, showcases the Ten Classes of Cosmological Deities, each identified by their distinctive crown ornaments. The intricately detailed illustration, created using opaque watercolor and ink on paper, is a captivating representation of the rich cultural and religious heritage of the region. The Ten Classes of Cosmological Deities, also known as the Ten Mahapurushas or Ten Great Beings, are an essential concept in Jainism, a major religion originating in India. This illustration, from the Sangrahani Sutra or 'Short Book of Compilation' by Shri Chandrasuri, is a testament to the depth and complexity of Jain cosmology. Each deity is depicted with a unique crown ornament, reflecting their distinct identity and role in the cosmos. The crowns range from simple designs to elaborate structures, adorned with various symbols and motifs. The deities are arranged in a panoramic view, with each figure occupying a distinct location on the page. The illustration is a masterpiece of 16th century Indian art, showcasing the exquisite skill of the unknown artist. The use of vibrant colors, such as red, yellow, and various shades of brown, adds to the visual appeal of the artwork. The lettering in the text surrounding the illustration is also noteworthy, with its elegant script and intricate letterbox format. This folio is a valuable addition to any collection of Asian art or religious art, and is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of India and Southeast Asia during the 16th century. The Los Angeles County Museum of Art is fortunate to have this rare and beautiful piece in its collection, allowing us to appreciate the artistic and religious traditions of the past.
