EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the exquisite artwork titled "Lakshmi massaging the foot of Vishnu" believed to have been created between 1765 and 1770. The composition is attributed to Nainsukh, while the painting itself is attributed to Manju. This masterpiece belongs to the 18th century era and showcases a mesmerizing depiction of Hindu mythology. In this image, Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth, can be seen delicately massaging Vishnu's foot as he sits on a patio adorned with vibrant flowers and plants. Both figures are beautifully painted in opaque watercolor and gold on paper, showcasing intricate details such as hennaed hands and lotus flower decorations. The scene exudes serenity and devotion as Lakshmi humbly tends to her beloved deity. The artist skillfully portrays their profiles from a side view, emphasizing their divine presence. The use of color adds depth and richness to the artwork, enhancing its visual appeal. This piece not only highlights India's rich cultural heritage but also exemplifies the mastery of Indian miniature art during the Mughal dynasty. It serves as a testament to both Nainsukh's compositional prowess and Manju's artistic talent. Displayed at Arthur M Sackler Gallery within Smithsonian Institution, this print allows viewers worldwide to appreciate this remarkable creation without commercial intentions.
