EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a stunning cosmetic palette from the 2nd-3rd century, created by the Indian School. Made of schist, this ancient artifact measures xx cm and is currently housed in the Dallas Museum of Art in Texas, USA. The palette, known as a Gandharan piece due to its origin in that region, was generously gifted to the museum by the Elbrun and Peter Kimmelman and Alvin and Lucy Owsley Foundations. The palette itself is a testament to the exquisite craftsmanship of its time. Its vibrant colors and intricate carvings demonstrate the skillful artistry of ancient India. This object offers us a glimpse into an era long gone, allowing us to appreciate both its beauty and historical significance. Displayed without any individuals present, this photograph emphasizes the sheer elegance of this sculpture. It stands alone as a work of art, commanding attention with its detailed engravings on rock material. As we observe this antiquity through our modern lens, it serves as a reminder of our connection to history and how civilizations have evolved over time. Bridgeman Images has expertly captured every nuance in their print of this remarkable artwork. Through their lens, we are transported back centuries ago when cosmetics were not only used for beautification but also held cultural importance within societies across Asia.
