EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a moment of divine love and devotion in the 17th century. Titled "Yashoda Binds Krishnas Hands: Page from a Dispersed Bhagavata Purana Manuscript, 1640-50" this Indian miniature painting is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Hinduism. In this scene, Yashoda, a female deity and mother figure to Krishna, lovingly binds his hands with rope. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring the narrative to life, showcasing the skillful artistry of an unknown artist. Set against a backdrop of lush trees and blooming flowers, this artwork transports us to rural Hindoostan (India) during that era. It provides a glimpse into the agrarian lifestyle prevalent at the time, with references to farming and cowherding. The Metropolitan Museum of Art houses this precious piece as part of its collection. Its inclusion speaks volumes about its historical significance and artistic value. As we admire this image today, we are reminded of the enduring power of religious beliefs and their influence on people's lives throughout history. This photograph serves as both an educational tool for understanding ancient traditions and an aesthetic delight for art enthusiasts worldwide.
