Dhumavati / Matangi, 1885-90 - A Mysterious Depiction of Divine Wisdom
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This chromolithographic print from the late 19th century showcases the enigmatic figures of Dhumavati and Matangi, two revered goddesses in Hindu mythology. Created by an unknown artist, this artwork beautifully captures the essence of these powerful deities. Dressed as an elderly woman with a crow perched on her arm, Dhumavati symbolizes wisdom and detachment from worldly desires. Her presence is both intriguing and awe-inspiring, inviting viewers to delve into the depths of spiritual knowledge. Matangi, depicted holding a sword and a winnowing frame while playing musical instruments like sitar and tambura, represents creativity and divine inspiration. With her bird-like vahana (vehicle) beside her, she exudes strength and grace. The vibrant colors used in this lithograph bring life to these ancient goddesses who continue to hold immense significance in Indian culture. The intricate details highlight their divine attributes while showcasing the rich heritage artistry prevalent during that era. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art as part of their esteemed collection, this print serves as a testament to India's religious diversity and artistic prowess. It invites us to explore the complexities of Hinduism through visual storytelling. As we gaze upon this extraordinary piece created over a century ago by an anonymous artist, we are reminded that even amidst anonymity lies great talent waiting to be discovered.
