EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print showcases a historical moment in Indian history, depicting Akbar the Great overseeing the capture of wild elephants in Malwa during 1564. This exquisite painting, numbered as 90 in the renowned Akbar-nama (Book of Akbar) by Abu l Fazl, is believed to have been created around 1602-3. The borders surrounding the artwork were added later, possibly during the 1700s. The artist behind this masterpiece has been attributed to one of three talented individuals: Farukh Chela, Govardhan, or Dhanraj. Using ink with vibrant colors and touches of gold on paper, they skillfully brought this scene to life. Mounted on an album page adorned with borders made from gold-decorated buff and blue paper on its recto side, this print exudes elegance and grandeur. On the verso side lies calligraphy by Faqir Ali that adds another layer of artistic beauty to this composition. Measuring approximately 37.5 x 25.4 cm (14 3/4 x 10 in. ), this print captures not only a significant event but also showcases the rich cultural heritage of India during Akbar's reign. It serves as a testament to his power and influence over wildlife conservation efforts at that time. This remarkable piece from Liszt Collection offers viewers a glimpse into history while celebrating both artistic mastery and historical documentation simultaneously.
