EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite folio from the 'Nadaun' Ramayana, depicting the Hermitage of Valmiki, dates back to the 1820s and is believed to have originated in the Kangra region of Himachal Pradesh, India. The Ramayana is an ancient Hindu epic that chronicles the adventures of Prince Rama and his wife Sita. In this scene, we see Valmiki, the sage and author of the Ramayana, seated in his hermitage, nestled among the hills. Valmiki is shown in deep meditation, clad in the traditional saffron robes of a Hindu sadhu. His young disciple, a woman in a vibrant sari, approaches the sage with a sense of reverence and anticipation. The scene is rendered in opaque watercolor and gold and ink on paper, with intricate details that bring the peaceful landscape and the harmony of the group to life. The colors are rich and vibrant, adding to the overall allure of this beautiful work of art. This folio is a testament to the enduring legacy of Hinduism and its rich artistic heritage, and serves as a reminder of the timeless stories and values that continue to inspire and captivate audiences across the globe.
