EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century engraving titled "Jogees Wounding Themselves. India" takes us on a visual journey through the rich history and cultural practices of India. The intricate illustrative technique employed in this vintage print transports us to an era when engravings were highly valued as a means of storytelling. The image showcases a group of jogees, religious ascetics known for their extreme acts of self-mortification, engaged in their ritualistic practice. With great attention to detail, the Victorian artist captures the intensity and dedication with which these jogees wound themselves as an act of devotion. The retro-styled composition evokes a sense of nostalgia, reminding us that art has always been a powerful medium for capturing moments from our past. As we gaze upon this historic artwork, we are reminded of the significance it holds in preserving cultural traditions and shedding light on lesser-known aspects of Indian society during that time. The Liszt Collection's careful preservation and curation allow us to appreciate not only the artistic beauty but also gain insights into different periods and regions across the globe. This particular engraving serves as a testament to how art can bridge gaps between generations by offering glimpses into historical events and customs that might otherwise be forgotten.
