Babhruvahana Resumes his Fight with Vrishaketu (verso)
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating folio from a 19th century Mahabharata manuscript, showcasing a pivotal moment from the epic Indian poem, the Razmnama. The scene depicts Prince Babhruvahana, clad in beige and brown, taking aim with his bow and arrow, ready to protect himself and his people from the advances of Prince Vrishaketu. The two princes face each other in a semi-circular shape, their protective shields held close as they prepare for combat. This stunning work of art, created in opaque watercolor on paper, hails from the South East Asian region, likely from Maharashtra, India. The intricate details of the princes' faces and the rich colors used in the painting showcase the skill and artistry of the unknown artist. The Mahabharata is one of the two major Sanskrit epics of ancient India, and this folio is a testament to the enduring power of the story and the artistry of its creators. The epic poem, which tells the story of the Kurukshetra War between the Pandava and Kaurava princes, has been a source of inspiration for generations, and this folio is a beautiful reminder of the rich cultural heritage of India and the Asian continent. This image, now housed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, is a valuable addition to the museum's collection of Asian art and literature, and serves as a reminder of the important role that art and poetry played in the lives of people in the 1850s and beyond. The scene of Babhruvahana and Vrishaketu facing off in combat is a powerful reminder of the importance of courage, protection, and the enduring bonds of royalty and family.
