EDITORS COMMENTS
is a mesmerizing print that transports viewers into the realm of mythical creatures and ancient legends. Created by an unknown artist during the 17th century, this artwork showcases the rich heritage of Indian art and its fusion with Greek mythology. The image depicts a magnificent creature known as Buraq, a chimera-like being that combines elements of various animals. Its body resembles an elephant, adorned with intricate gold decorations that shimmer in opulent hues. The head features avian characteristics, with majestic wings extending from its back. This fantastical creature emerges from aquatic depths surrounded by vibrant fish, symbolizing its connection to both land and sea. A woman stands beside Buraq, representing humanity's awe and fascination towards these mythical beings. Her presence adds a sense of scale to the artwork while also highlighting the feminine power associated with mythological creatures in many cultures. This piece is rendered using opaque watercolor and gold on paper, showcasing the skillful craftsmanship prevalent during this period. It now resides within the prestigious collection of The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), where it continues to captivate visitors with its ethereal beauty. "The Fabulous Creature Buraq" serves as a testament to mankind's enduring fascination with mythical beasts throughout history—a reminder of our collective imagination and desire to explore worlds beyond our own reality.
