EDITORS COMMENTS
Five Galloping Elephants, Number Six of the Gajpati (Lord of Elephants) is an exquisite 19th century playing card from a Mughal Ganjifa set, originating from the Indian subcontinent, specifically Rajasthan. The card, now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), showcases five majestic elephants in full gallop, their powerful forms adorned with intricate opaque watercolor and gold detailing on cardboard. The elephants, depicted in shades of grey and red, are a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Hindustan and South East Asia. The Mughal Ganjifa cards were a popular form of entertainment during the Mughal Empire, with each card representing a different theme or symbol. The Gajpati suit, as the name suggests, was dedicated to the revered Lord of Elephants, a symbol of power, strength, and wisdom in Hindu mythology. The card's border is adorned with intricate geometric patterns and floral motifs, adding to its visual appeal. The elephants, with their large, expressive eyes and detailed trunks, seem to be in the midst of a wild stampede, their powerful legs propelling them forward. The card's vibrant colors and intricate details are a testament to the exceptional craftsmanship of the artist, whose identity remains unknown. This stunning piece of art provides a glimpse into the rich artistic traditions of India and Southeast Asia during the 19th century, a time when the region was a melting pot of diverse cultures and artistic influences. The Five Galloping Elephants, Number Six of the Gajpati (Lord of Elephants) is not just a playing card, but a work of art that continues to captivate and inspire.
