DREAM OF JAHANGIR - A Captivating Encounter of Empires
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print titled "DREAM OF JAHANGIR" we are transported back to the early 17th century, where the Moghul Emperor Jahangir finds himself immersed in a dreamlike embrace with Shah Abbas I of Persia. This exquisite miniature, dating back to around 1620, showcases the artistic brilliance of manuscript illumination. The scene unfolds with Jahangir on the right, his regal presence emanating from his ornate clothing and majestic turban. His distinguished moustache adds an air of authority as he reclines gracefully. On the left stands Shah Abbas I, resplendent in his royal attire and belt adorned with floral motifs. The two rulers meet amidst a border filled with intricate patterns and symbols that represent their respective empires. This meeting transcends boundaries - both geographical and cultural - as it unites two powerful Muslim leaders from different lands. The dream-like atmosphere further enhances this encounter, blurring reality and imagination. As we gaze at this remarkable artwork by an unknown Mughal artist, we cannot help but ponder upon the significance of such encounters between great rulers. It reminds us that even in dreams, connections can be made across vast distances and differences. "DREAM OF JAHANGIR" is not just a visual feast for art enthusiasts; it also serves as a testament to the complex history shared by these empires during one of its most intriguing periods.
