EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "A Game of Polo, from the Large Clive Album" we are transported back to 17th century India. The image, captured by an unknown Indian School artist, showcases a thrilling game of polo in progress. The scene is filled with energy and excitement as a male Indian rider skillfully maneuvers his horse across the field. The miniature artwork beautifully captures the grace and power of both man and beast in perfect harmony. The vibrant colors used bring life to every stroke of the brush, making it impossible to look away. As we gaze at this historic moment frozen in time, we can't help but marvel at the rich cultural heritage depicted here. Polo has long been considered a royal sport in India, often played by Mogul emperors and their courtiers. This particular artwork offers us a glimpse into their world - one where elegance meets athleticism. This stunning piece is part of the larger Clive Album collection housed at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London. Comprising 104 folios of Indian and Persian Islamic calligraphy and miniatures, it serves as a testament to the artistic prowess that flourished during this period. Bridgeman Images has done justice to this masterpiece by preserving its beauty through fine art printing techniques. As we admire this print, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic appeal but also its historical significance as an invaluable piece of art history.
