Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The sage Valmiki, seated on the left outside his hut, talks with the divine sage Narada. First folio of the Mewar Ramayana. Private collection

This is a manuscript published in 1653 CE from Mewar region (southeast Rajasthan), in an era when the region was a part of the Mughal empire. The framework is similar but the epic story in the manuscript is different in details from the older Sanskrit texts. Similarly the costumes / buildings and other details in the illustrations have been adapted to the Mughal style.

The photo above is of a 2D artwork from the text that was published before 1899 CE, well before 1923. Therefore Wikimedia Commons PD-Art licensing guidelines apply. Any rights I have as a photographer is herewith donated to wikimedia commons under CC 4.0 license.
