EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 16th century print depicts Plato, the renowned ancient Greek philosopher, in an unexpected role as a musician. The image, which is believed to have originated from either India, Hindustan, or the Mughal Empire in South East Asia, showcases Plato in a serene outdoor setting, seated on a rugged surface with a variety of musical instruments at his disposure. The philosopher is seen holding a harp in one hand and a stringed instrument, possibly a sitar or a lute, in the other. A pelt lies at his feet, adding a touch of warmth to the scene. The border of the print, which dates back to the 19th century, is adorned with intricate floral designs and patterns, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of the Asian continent. The opaque watercolor gold and ink on paper technique used to create the image adds to its antique charm. Plato, known for his contributions to mathematics, philosophy, and education, is often depicted in art as a wise and thoughtful figure. However, this portrayal of him as a musician is a rare and intriguing representation. The presence of various musical instruments suggests that music may have played an important role in Plato's philosophical teachings or personal life. This print, which is now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), is a testament to the enduring influence of ancient Greek philosophy and the rich artistic traditions of Asia.
