EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "A prisoner is brought to justice, c. 1610" transports us back in time to witness a significant moment in history. Created by an Indian School artist during the 17th century, this artwork measures 7.62 x12.38 cm and is currently housed at the San Diego Museum of Art in the USA. The scene depicted showcases a solemn act of justice being served as a bound prisoner faces his fate. The use of opaque watercolor and gold adds depth and richness to the composition, enhancing its visual impact. Floral and foliated motifs adorn the borders, framing the central narrative with delicate beauty. This intricate decorative border reflects South Asian artistic influences prevalent during that era. The image evokes strong emotions as we witness corporal punishment being inflicted upon the criminal through whipping. It serves as a reminder of past societal norms surrounding crime and punishment in India. Through this artwork, we gain insight into historical practices such as flogging as a means of retribution for crimes committed. The ornate decoration further emphasizes both the seriousness and cultural significance attached to this form of punishment. As we observe this thought-provoking piece from centuries ago, it prompts us to reflect on how our understanding and approach towards justice have evolved over time while appreciating the skillful craftsmanship that went into creating such an impactful work of art.
