EDITORS COMMENTS
This commemorative portrait captures Damodarji II (1797-1826), the ruler of the princely state of Marwar-Jodhpur in Rajasthan, India, during the 19th century. The image, created between 1822 and 1850, depicts Damodarji II performing the Ceremony of the Offering of Food to the Seven Images (Sapata Svarup ki Utsava) in his royal court. The ceremony, which is a significant tradition in Hinduism, is typically celebrated on the occasion of the festival of Annakut, which marks the end of the Diwali festival. Damodarji II is shown dressed in traditional Rajasthani apparel, wearing a long, flowing robe and a turban adorned with precious stones. He is seated at an ornate altar, surrounded by a group of men in similar attire, who assist him in the ceremony. The offering table is laden with bowls of cereal, rice, and other delicacies, which are being prepared for the deities. The portrait is an opaque watercolor painting, executed with gold and tin alloy on paper. The rich colors and intricate details of the painting reflect the artistic heritage of the region and the significance of the ceremony. The portrait offers a glimpse into the customs and traditions of the time, providing a valuable insight into the cultural practices of South East Asia during the 19th century.
