EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning Chess set dating back to 1795, crafted with exquisite detail using ivory and walnut. Created by the Indian School in the 18th century, this masterpiece is now housed at the Manchester Art Gallery in the UK. The image captures every intricate element of this historical artifact, highlighting its significance as a symbol of strategy and intellect. The chess pieces featured in this artwork represent an army or armed forces, beautifully carved from ivory and walnut timbers. Each figure embodies the rich cultural heritage of India and Asia, reflecting their craftsmanship and attention to detail. From queens to knights, pawns to bishops, these meticulously designed pieces tell a story of ancient board games played by skilled players. The chess set's origins can be traced back to Bengal in India, where it was created with utmost precision by talented artisans. Its elegant case holds each piece securely while showcasing their beauty when not in use. As we admire this remarkable creation through Bridgeman Images' lens, we are transported back centuries into a world where strategic battles were fought on wooden boards rather than battlefields. This photograph serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of chess as both an intellectual pursuit and an art form that transcends time and borders.
