Description |
English: The Ramayana is a Sanskrit language Hindu epic attributed to Valmiki, whose first redaction is dated between 5th-century to 4th-century BCE (see J. L. Brockington Academic The Sanskrit Epics, p. 379 ISBN: 90-04-10260-4. ). The text has been popular on the Indian subcontinent since the ancient times. It arrived in southeast Asia about mid 1st-millennium CE, and has been popular ever since as evidenced by reliefs on major temples and in manuscripts. It has influenced both literary and performance arts in many southeast Asia countries. The story has been adapted and revised to some extent to suit regional cultures and audiences.
The above photo is from a Mewari manuscript, in Mewar-Deccan artwork style. The image shows Rama and Lakshmana arriving at the rocky terrain near Lake Pampa (and eponymous river), in their search for Sita. Hanuman is shown in the top right spotting them for the first time. Lake Pampa region inspired the capital of Hampi, Vijayanagara empire. The manuscript was purchased from Udaipur in the 19th-century and is now preserved at the British Library (Manuscript ID: Add.15297(1)). The photo above is of a 2D artwork from the text that was itself authored more than 2,000 years ago, and a manuscript that was acquired in the 19th-century.
