EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of "Narasimha, engraved by de Marlet". Created by a French School artist in the 19th century, this colour lithograph depicts an awe-inspiring scene from Hindu mythology. The image portrays Narasimha, the fourth incarnation of Vishnu, engaged in a fierce battle with the demon Hiranyakasipu. With its intricate details and vibrant colors, this print captures the essence of Indian culture and spirituality. Narasimha is depicted as a divine being with a high crown atop his head, symbolizing his godly status. As a man-lion hybrid deity, he embodies both strength and grace. The intensity of the moment is palpable as Narasimha mauls Hiranyakasipu in an epic struggle between good and evil. This depiction not only reflects Hinduism's rich mythological traditions but also serves as a reminder of humanity's eternal quest for righteousness. This remarkable piece belongs to a private collection known as The Stapleton Collection and is now available for public viewing through Bridgeman Images. Its historical significance combined with its artistic brilliance makes it an invaluable addition to any art enthusiast's collection.
