This print showcases an exquisite illustration from the Ramayana, a revered Hindu epic, created by Valmiki during the second half of the 16th century.

C. , this artwork beautifully combines influences from both India and Iran. The scene depicted in this illustration transports viewers into a world of mythical wonder. It features prominent characters such as Hanuman, Rama, Lakshmana, Sita, Ravana, and Bharata. Through intricate details and vibrant colors rendered with watercolor, gouache, ink and pen on paper techniques typical of Persian miniatures and Islamic art traditions; this piece truly comes to life. Every stroke tells a story steeped in mythology and allegory that has captivated audiences for centuries. The manuscript illumination skillfully captures pivotal moments from the Ramayana's narrative while showcasing Mir Zayn al-Abidin's exceptional talent as an artist.
