EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Maharana Jagat Singh II engaged in the thrilling activities of hawking and boar hunting. Created by an anonymous Indian artist during the 18th century, this masterpiece measures 30.2x65.2 cm and is currently housed at the San Diego Museum of Art in the USA. Maharana Jagat Singh II, who reigned over the Mewar Kingdom from 1709 to 1751, was known for his passion for adventure and sport. In this artwork, he is depicted on horseback with a group of fellow hunters as they engage in falconry and pursue wild boars through lush landscapes. The painting beautifully captures the essence of traditional Indian sporting culture, showcasing not only equestrian skills but also bird handling techniques used in hawking. The scene unfolds against a picturesque backdrop featuring a serene river, blooming flowers, and a rowing boat carrying additional participants. Accompanied by loyal dogs and armed with bows and arrows, Maharana Jagat Singh II epitomizes regal power as he leads his entourage on this exhilarating hunt. The use of opaque watercolors embellished with silver and gold adds an exquisite touch to this already magnificent piece. Through this artwork, we catch a glimpse into both the grandeur of royal life during that era and the deep connection between humans and nature. It serves as a testament to India's rich cultural heritage while celebrating the bravery and skill displayed by its rulers like Maharana Jag
