EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Lion capital from the Pillar of Emperor Ashoka, a remarkable artifact dating back to the 3rd century BC. Crafted out of polished sandstone, this awe-inspiring piece is currently housed in the Sarnath Museum in Uttar Pradesh, India. The pillar itself was erected during Emperor Ashoka's reign and served as a commemoration of significant events in the life of Buddha or as markers for routes leading to holy sites. Standing tall and majestic, it exudes an air of grandeur and historical significance. The intricate details on this lion capital are truly mesmerizing. The craftsmanship is impeccable, with every curve and contour expertly carved into the stone. The lions depicted on each side symbolize power and strength while also representing Buddhism. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time to ancient India when Emperor Ashoka ruled over the Mauryan Empire. It serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage and offers us a glimpse into an era long gone by. This image captures not only the beauty but also the historical importance of this incredible artifact.
