EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a preparatory drawing from the Isarda or Kotah school of art, dating back to around 1720. Created by an anonymous Indian artist from the 18th century, this ink and gouache masterpiece measures 50.5x70 cm and is currently held in a private collection. The artwork depicts a scene of immense power and danger as men attempt to tame a wild elephant. The majestic creature stands chained, its massive form restrained by cruel chains. Men armed with spears surround it, attacking with determination and bravery. This study showcases both the beauty of the animal and the harsh reality of its captivity. The image serves as a reminder of mankind's complex relationship with nature, highlighting themes of cruelty and endangerment faced by wild animals at the hands of humans. It also emphasizes our fascination with taming these magnificent creatures for various purposes throughout history. With incredible attention to detail, this preparatory drawing offers insight into the artistic process behind creating such masterpieces. Each stroke reveals meticulous planning before transferring onto canvas or other mediums. Bridgeman Images presents this extraordinary piece through Fine Art Finder without any commercial use intended. It invites viewers to appreciate not only the skillful execution but also ponder upon humanity's impact on wildlife and their natural habitats.
