Detail of Mandi style, Pahari. Rama chasing the golden deer, Maricha. Folio from the dispersed Shangri Ramayana, mid-18th century. National Museum, New Delhi
The great Indian epic the Ramayana, thought to have been written in the early centuries BCE, follows Rama’s adventures as he seeks to rescue his beloved wife Sita from the evil Ravana. The adventures of Rama, Sita and Lakshmana, as they encounter human and extra-human friends and foes, has offered rich material for artistic improvisation, spanning the spectrum of human emotion and action in the world.
