EDITORS COMMENTS

In this 18th-century image from the Hyderabad region of Andhra Pradesh, India, we find ourselves transported to a serene courtyard setting, where a musical performance unfolds under the shade of an ornate sun blind or awning. The recto side of the page showcases the main event: a group of musicians, both male and female, engrossed in their performance. The sitar player, with a young woman in attendance, focuses intently on the intricate strings of his instrument, while other musicians play various percussion and stringed instruments. The verso side of the page reveals a stunning example of calligraphy, its opaque watercolor gold and ink on paper design adding an elegant contrast to the vibrant colors of the musical scene on the recto. This dual-sided artwork, hailing from the rich artistic heritage of Hindoostan (Hindu India), provides a fascinating glimpse into the cultural traditions of South East Asia during the 1750s. The musicians, dressed in the contemporary attire of the time, are seen in various poses, some playing their instruments with great passion, while others engage in animated conversation. In the background, we notice a man smoking a hookah or huqqa pipe, adding to the overall ambiance of leisure and enjoyment. The courtyard, adorned with lush greenery, exudes an air of tranquility and sophistication, making for a captivating tableau of 18th-century Indian life. This evocative artwork, now part of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art's extensive collection, offers a unique window into the past, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and diversity of musical and artistic traditions from the Asian continent.
