EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment from the renowned "Siege of Lanka" series by Manaku, dating back to around 1725. In this particular folio, we witness the legendary Rama seated alongside his loyal companions Lakshmana and Sugriva. The scene unfolds as Rama releases two demon spies named Shuka and Sarana. The artwork showcases Manaku's exceptional talent in portraying intricate details using ink and gold on paper. The vibrant colors, particularly the lush green landscape and yellow accents, bring life to this ancient Indian epic tale known as Ramayana. As we delve into the composition, we are transported to a majestic palace overlooking a serene river. Rama stands tall as he commands attention with his divine presence while surrounded by men and women who bear witness to this significant event. The fusion of religion, mythology, literature, and geography within this painting is truly remarkable. It serves not only as an artistic masterpiece but also as a testament to India's rich cultural heritage. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this artwork continues to captivate viewers with its timeless beauty. Its historical significance allows us to appreciate the skillful craftsmanship of Manaku while immersing ourselves in the mythical world depicted within it.
