EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph from 1828, titled "Falconer" showcases the remarkable talent of artist Marlet et Cie. Part of the renowned collection owned by Jean Claude Carriere, this print offers a glimpse into the vibrant world of 19th-century India. The image depicts an Indian falconer in his traditional attire, standing outside against a backdrop of magnificent buildings. The vivid colors and intricate details bring to life the rich cultural heritage and exotic landscapes of Hindoostan. With his trained falcon perched on his gloved hand, the falconer exudes confidence and mastery over his craft. Falconry was not merely a sport but also an occupation during this era, showcasing both skill and status. This lithograph captures a moment frozen in time – a testament to the harmonious relationship between man and bird as they embark on their hunting expedition together. The bond between them is palpable through their shared focus and determination. Through its art media technique, Marlet et Cie's work transports us back to an era when hawking was not only a pastime but also an integral part of Indian culture. This print serves as a reminder that even centuries later, we can still appreciate the beauty and significance of historical traditions captured within works of art like this one.
