EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a significant moment in history - the circumcision ceremony for Akbar's sons. Painted by Dharam Das and attributed to Abu l Fazl, this artwork is part of the Akbar-nama, also known as the Book of Akbar. Created around 1602-3, it beautifully captures the essence of Indian culture during that time. The painting itself measures 22.9 x 12.1 cm and features opaque watercolor, ink, and gold on paper. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring life to this historical event. The image depicts a ceremonial scene where young boys are undergoing circumcision under the watchful eyes of their father, Emperor Akbar. Abu l Fazl was an esteemed historian and courtier who chronicled important events during Emperor Akbar's reign. His meticulous documentation provides valuable insights into Mughal India's social customs and traditions. Dharam Das' artistic talent shines through in this piece as he skillfully portrays each character with precision and emotion. The use of gold accents adds a touch of grandeur to the overall composition. This print from Liszt Collection allows us to appreciate both the historical significance and artistic brilliance captured within this masterpiece from Indian art history.
