EDITORS COMMENTS
This image depicts the Festival (Tirunal) for the dedication of a Hindu temple, a vibrant and joyous occasion marking the completion of a sacred architectural masterpiece. Devotees, dressed in their finest attire, come together to pull a wheeled shrine adorned with flags into the temple compound. The shrine, a mobile representation of the deity, is drawn by the faithful to the rhythm of music, signifying the unity and devotion of the community. Andrea Bernieri's handcoloured copperplate drawing and engraving, taken from Giulio Ferrario's Ancient and Modern Costumes of all the Peoples of the World, published in Florence, Italy, in 1844, offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich tapestry of Hindu traditions. The intricate details and vibrant colours of the illustration transport us to another time and place, allowing us to witness the beauty and grandeur of this ancient culture. The Festival Tirunal is a significant event in Hinduism, celebrating the divine presence of the deity in the temple and the unity of the community. The devotees' collective effort in pulling the shrine reflects their shared faith and devotion, while the music adds to the festive atmosphere. This exquisite illustration serves as a testament to the enduring power of religious traditions and the human spirit.
