EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Maharaja Raj Singh in Procession with Members of His Court, ca. 1700" takes us back to the vibrant world of 18th-century India. This masterpiece, attributed to Nihal Chand, showcases the opulence and grandeur of the Maharaja's court. In this scene, we witness a majestic procession led by Maharaja Raj Singh himself. Dressed in resplendent attire befitting his royal status, he exudes power and authority as he rides atop a magnificent elephant adorned with intricate gold embellishments. The procession is accompanied by an array of courtiers on horseback, adding to the regal spectacle. Every detail in this painting reflects the rich cultural heritage of Hindoostan (India). From the elaborate howdah on top of the elephant where Maharaja Raj Singh sits to the skillfully painted horses and their riders, it is evident that no expense was spared in creating this work of art. The artist's use of opaque watercolor brings life to every stroke and adds depth to each figure portrayed. The colors are vibrant yet harmonious, capturing both the splendor and gracefulness inherent in Indian art. This remarkable piece now resides at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), serving as a testament to India's glorious past. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, we can still marvel at its beauty and appreciate its significance within our shared human history.
