EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of an Indian widow standing gracefully near a crystal-clear spring of water. The image, signed by P. Sonnerat pinx and Poisson sc, is taken from Pl. 6 after page 31 in volume 1 of Pierre M. Sonnerat's renowned work "Voyages aux Indes orientales et a la Chine". Published in Paris in 1782, this extraordinary piece delves into the customs, religion, sciences, and arts of Indians, Chinese people, Pegouins (Burmese), and Madegasses (Malagasy). The widow's clothing showcases the rich cultural heritage prevalent during that era. Her attire exudes elegance with vibrant colors and intricate patterns that reflect her identity as an Indian woman. This visual representation offers us a glimpse into the sartorial choices made by widows at that time. The serene backdrop of the spring adds to the overall tranquility captured within this photograph. The flowing water symbolizes purity and renewal while emphasizing nature's beauty. As we observe this remarkable print from Liszt Collection without any commercial intentions or affiliations mentioned here explicitly let us appreciate its historical significance and artistic merit instead. It serves as a testament to both the skillful artistry employed by Pierre M. Sonnerat and Jean-Baptiste Marie Poisson in their respective roles as painter and sculptor while also shedding light on India's diverse culture during that period.
