Babhruvahana Faces Arjuna's Army with Syamakarna
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a stunning 19th century, opaque watercolor on paper folio from the Mahabharata, a great Hindu epic poem originating from India. The scene depicted in this image is a pivotal moment from the story of Babhruvahana, a courageous and powerful warrior from the kingdom of Paithan in Maharashtra, India. Babhruvahana is shown here facing Arjuna and his formidable army, with his trusted elephant, Syamakarna, standing by his side. The battlefield stretches out behind them, filled with the chaos and intensity of warfare. The front line of soldiers, horses, and elephants can be seen advancing towards each other, ready for a fierce confrontation. The artist's skillful use of color and shading brings the scene to life, capturing the raw emotion and energy of the moment. The intricate details of the soldiers' uniforms, the horses' coats, and the textures of the battlefield terrain are all rendered with great care and precision. The Mahabharata is a rich and complex work of literature, full of mythology, religion, and heroism. This folio is a testament to the enduring power of this ancient story and the artistic traditions of South East Asia and India. It is a valuable addition to the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of the continent. Despite the unknown identity of the artist, this folio is a masterpiece in its own right, a beautiful and evocative representation of a pivotal moment in the epic tale of the Mahabharata.
