EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Matsyavatara or Matsya, the first avatar of Vishnu in Hindu mythology. Engraved by Marlet & Cie and published in Paris between 1827-1835, this color lithograph by A. Geringer is a true masterpiece. The image depicts Matsya, taking the form of a fish, warning the sage Manu about an impending catastrophic flood. The divine presence of Matsyavatara is beautifully captured in this artwork. With its striking blue scales and serene face, it exudes power and wisdom. The intricate details bring to life the essence of this ancient deity from L'Inde française (French India). As per Hindu beliefs, Vishnu takes various forms or avatars to protect humanity during times of crisis. In his incarnation as Matsya, he saved mankind from destruction by guiding Manu to build a massive boat that would withstand the deluge. This print not only celebrates Indian culture but also serves as a reminder of our connection with higher powers and their role in shaping our destinies. It symbolizes faith and resilience amidst adversity. Part of The Stapleton Collection housed in a private collection today, this artwork holds immense historical significance while showcasing French artistry at its finest. Its vibrant colors and attention to detail make it an exquisite addition to any art lover's collection.
