EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 19th century print depicts a Nath Yogi, a wandering ascetic from the Indian subcontinent, hailing from the Himachal Pradesh region in North India or possibly Nepal or Bhutan in South East Asia. The Nath Yogis are known for their unique practices of Tantra and Hatha Yoga, and are often identified by their distinctive hairstyles and body markings. In this image, the Yogi is depicted with his eyes closed, focusing on his inner self, with his third eye (Ajna Chakra) and crown chakra (Sahasrara) marked with intricate dot designs. His long, matted hair is styled in a topknot (Tiryakpundra), adorned with silver and gold earrings (Mandi), and a simple necklace. His throat chakra (Vishuddha) is also marked, signifying mastery over speech and communication. The Yogi's face exudes a deep sense of peace and tranquility, reflecting his mastery of the mind and body through years of dedicated practice. This beautiful work of art, executed in opaque watercolor, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Hinduism and the profound spiritual practices that have originated from the Indian subcontinent. This print is a rare and valuable addition to any collection of Asian art or religious art, and would make a stunning centerpiece in a museum or private collection. It is currently housed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), a renowned institution dedicated to preserving and showcasing the world's diverse cultural heritage.
