EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Temiya Jakata" from circa 1910, an illustration by the Laotian School. The image is part of a private collection and depicts a significant moment in Buddhism's religious history. The artwork portrays Temiya, known as the dumb prince, who reigned for only seven days at the age of sixteen. The illustration comes from the book "Temiya Jataka: The Silent Prince" which belongs to a series called "Jataka: Tales on the Buddha's Anterior Lives". This particular story takes place in Laos around 1910 and sheds light on Temiya's short-lived reign. It offers insight into his journey as he navigates adolescence and grapples with his responsibilities as royalty. The image captures not only historical significance but also cultural elements prevalent in Asia during that era. It features a young maid or housemaid attending to Temiya while he sits on his throne. The engraving style adds depth to this scene, highlighting intricate details such as fans and traditional attire. With its roots in India, this tale has become legendary across Southeast Asia, including Laos. Its mythological nature intertwines with paganism and polytheism, making it an essential part of local traditions. Overall, this print serves as both an artistic representation of history and a testament to the enduring power of mythology within different cultures worldwide.
