EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning artwork titled "A Comb Duck, c. 1800" by an Indian artist from the 18th century. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate the intricate decorative technique used in this early 19th-century masterpiece. Set against a pristine white background, the comb duck stands tall with its webbed feet firmly planted on the ground. The artist's skillful use of watercolor brings out the vibrant plumage of this magnificent creature, capturing every detail with precision and grace. The side view posture adds depth to the painting, allowing us to admire both its elegance and natural beauty. Painted on European paper, this artwork reflects influences from Islamic art prevalent in India during that period. Its Asian origins are evident through its portrayal of an animal theme commonly found in Indian artworks. As we delve into history through this remarkable piece, it transports us back to Calcutta in the early 19th century when artists like these flourished under royal patronage. This particular work is now part of a private collection but continues to captivate viewers with its timeless charm. Through Bridgeman Images' lens, we are fortunate enough to witness and appreciate this rare gem from Indian art history – a testament to the immense talent and creativity that thrived during that era.
