EDITORS COMMENTS
"This stunning folio, depicting the moment Rama kills Vali, is a testament to the artistic brilliance of the 'Impey Ramayana' created between 1770 and 1775 in Murshidabad, Bengal, India. The unknown artist masterfully employs opaque watercolor and gold on paper to bring this pivotal scene from the Hindu epic Ramayana to life. Rama, the prince of Ayodhya, is shown in the center, his blue-skinned form radiating divine power as he draws his bow and aims an arrow at Vali, the monkey king. Lakshmana, Rama's brother, stands by his side, a concerned expression on his face. Vali's companion, Sugriva, watches the scene unfold in the background, his face a mixture of shock and resignation. The landscape is lush and vibrant, with rolling hills, dense foliage, and a serene body of water reflecting the scene. The use of gold adds an otherworldly quality to the image, enhancing the divine nature of Rama and the epic significance of the moment. This scene marks the beginning of a series of events that leads Rama to his ultimate goal of rescuing his wife Sita from the demon king Ravana. The 'Impey Ramayana' is a valuable heritage art piece that showcases the rich cultural heritage of India and the depth of Hinduism's literary and artistic traditions." The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) is proud to house this magnificent folio in its collection, allowing future generations to appreciate the beauty and significance of this work of art.
