EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, we witness a pivotal moment in history as Prince Gotama (Gautama) makes the life-altering decision to cut off his hair. Taken from The Connoisseur Volume 96, edited by Edward Wenham, this image transports us back to the year 1934-35. Set against an outdoor backdrop, the prince stands tall and resolute, surrounded by animals and attended by loyal men. Clutching a sword firmly in one hand and holding a tray with his severed locks in the other, he exudes both power and vulnerability. His brown robes blend harmoniously with the hues of nature around him. This painting captures not only a religious act but also symbolizes war and warfare during that era. It represents Prince Gotama's transformation into Gautama Buddha - the enlightened one who would go on to found Buddhism. The print collector has expertly captured every intricate detail of this fresco-like scene. The intensity of emotions is palpable through their lens; it is as if we can feel the weight of Prince Gotama's decision ourselves. As we gaze upon this portrait frozen in time, we are reminded of the profound impact that individuals can have on shaping our world. This historic moment serves as a timeless reminder that even great leaders must make difficult choices on their path towards enlightenment.
