EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning artwork titled "Indra, king of the gods, being anointed with soma". Created by the Indian School in the 18th century, this gouache on paper masterpiece is housed at the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France. The image depicts Indra, revered as the king of gods in Hindu mythology, undergoing a sacred anointment ceremony with soma. The painting beautifully captures Indra's divine presence and power. He is adorned with a majestic crown that symbolizes his authority over natural elements. As he receives the anointing ritual, his regal stature shines through every brushstroke. Intricate details bring this ancient scene to life - from Indra's serene expression to the vibrant colors used to depict him. A parasol hovers above him as a symbol of protection and reverence for his godly status. This portrayal reflects not only devotion but also highlights key aspects of Hinduism and its rich cultural heritage. Bridgeman Images has skillfully preserved this remarkable piece of art history through their print collection.
