EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a moment of adventure and skill in the 19th century. This engraving by the English School depicts a group of hunters embarking on an exhilarating expedition. The image showcases the toiling efforts required for such a daring venture. As they traverse a stony path under the scorching sun, these brave individuals have ventured into the wilderness armed with bows and arrows. Their goal is clear – to hunt deer and other wildlife that roam freely in this picturesque landscape. The scene unfolds with great applause as one hunter takes aim at his target from atop a machan, or hunting platform built high on a hillside. His bow drawn back, he displays both concentration and confidence in his marksmanship skills. Will he hit his mark or will it be another miss? Inquisitive pigs curiously observe from afar as these skilled archers showcase their prowess with their traditional weapons. The district's roral police known as ghatwals accompany them throughout their journey, ensuring safety amidst potential dangers. This print not only offers us a glimpse into life during this time but also highlights the rich cultural heritage of India through its use of traditional weaponry and hunting practices. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and adaptability in utilizing defensive weapons like bows and arrows for survival in Asia's diverse landscapes.
