EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th century print depicts a scene from the Vessantara Jataka, a renowned Buddhist narrative from ancient India, specifically Chapter 9, titled "Maddi." The story revolves around the bodhisattva Vessantara, who, out of compassion, gives away his wife and two children to a king. In this image, we see the young women, dressed in vibrant fabrics, engaged in their daily chores outside their cottage in the forest. The mother, seemingly preoccupied, is weaving a cloth on a loom, while her young daughter plays with a feline companion. The other young woman, unaware of the distractions around her, tends to a pigment pot, preparing color for the textiles. The scene is set against the backdrop of a compound with various buildings, including a grand temple, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of Southeast Asia. The use of gilt pigments on cloth adds an element of luxury and sophistication to the artwork. This print, with its intricate details and beautiful colors, transports us to another time and place, inviting us to reflect on the universal themes of motherhood, family, and the passage of time.
