EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1929, showcases the intricate beauty and rich history of the Indian drum known as the Mridangam. The Mridangam is a type of barrel-shaped, double-headed drum that is widely used in Indian classical music. The drum's striking design includes pieces of wood between the leather braces and the striped shell, which assist in the tuning process. The art of playing the Mridangam requires immense skill and dexterity. Musicians use their wrist, the flat of their hand, and their fingers to produce a vast array of sounds. The origins of the Mridangam are deeply rooted in Indian mythology, with the drum believed to have been created by the God Mahadeo (Shiva), making it one of the most ancient of Indian drums. The intricate tensioning system of the Mridangam is evident in this photograph, with the leather straps and braces carefully adjusted to achieve the perfect pitch. The drum's history is as fascinating as its design, with various legends and stories surrounding its creation and usage. The Mridangam is an essential instrument in Indian classical music, and its unique sound and rhythm add depth and richness to the melodies. This photograph is a testament to the enduring tradition and cultural significance of this remarkable instrument.
