EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite engraving titled "Assamese Gossains" by the English School in the 19th century. The image, now part of a private collection, offers a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of Assam. The Assamese Gossains depicted in this artwork are revered spiritual figures who hold immense significance in Assamese society. Dressed in traditional attire, their serene expressions reflect wisdom and deep spirituality. This engraving was originally created as an illustration for "The Imperial Gazetteer, A General Dictionary of Geography" published by Blackie around 1855. The fine details captured in this print highlight the craftsmanship and skill of the English School artists. Every line etched on paper seems to tell a story, transporting viewers back to a time when these gossains played pivotal roles within their communities.
