EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print captures a folio from a manuscript of the Raga Darshan of Anup, dating back to A. H. 1214 / A. D. 1799-1800. The artwork, created in the 18th century, showcases the rich heritage art of India and celebrates the Hindu festival of Holi. The scene depicted is set against a picturesque landscape, with colorful streets bustling with people immersed in joyful celebrations. Both men and women can be seen participating in this religious event, their faces adorned with bright hues as they engage in traditional rituals. The artist's use of opaque watercolor on paper brings out the vividness and depth of each detail, making it an exquisite piece that reflects the artistic prowess prevalent during this era. As we delve into this mesmerizing street scene captured by an unknown artist, we are transported to Hindoostan (India), where Hinduism thrives as a prominent religion. This ragamala painting not only serves as a visual delight but also offers us insight into the cultural fabric and religious fervor that permeated society at that time. Preserved within The Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, this remarkable artwork stands as a testament to India's rich artistic legacy and its ability to captivate viewers even centuries later.
