EDITORS COMMENTS
This 9th-10th century print depicts the revered Hindu deity, Surya, or the Sun God, in a magnificent display of celestial power. Surya is shown riding a chariot, brilliantly illuminating the cosmos, drawn by seven horses, each representing a day of the week in Hindu astrology. The Sun God holds two lotus flowers, symbolizing creation and purity. At his feet, two goddesses, personifications of dawn and dusk, gracefully drive away the demons of darkness with their bows and arrows. The goddess of dawn, Ushas, is often depicted as a beautiful, radiant woman, while the goddess of dusk, Pratyahara, is depicted as an older, wiser figure. This intricately detailed sculpture, believed to be from India, showcases the rich artistic heritage of the medieval period. The Navagraha, or the nine planets, are an essential aspect of Hinduism, and Surya, as the chief deity of the solar system, holds a significant place in Hindu mythology. The print is a testament to the enduring influence of Hinduism on world culture and the intricate symbolism that permeates its artistic expressions. This masterpiece is now preserved and displayed at the Pergamon Museum in Berlin, Germany, offering a glimpse into the fascinating history and religious traditions of ancient civilizations.
