EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the moment of departure for Siddhartha, also known as Buddha, from his father's palace in India. The young prince is seen leaving behind his luxurious life and family to seek enlightenment after witnessing signs of old age, sickness, and death.
In this historical image by Abanindranath Tagore, we see Siddhartha being persuaded by a hermit to become an ascetic and abandon his princely lifestyle. This pivotal moment in history marks the beginning of Buddha's journey towards spiritual awakening and ultimate enlightenment.
The intricate details in this print beautifully depict the inner turmoil faced by Siddhartha as he makes the difficult decision to leave everything behind in search of truth and meaning. The lush green leaves surrounding him symbolize growth, renewal, and transformation as he embarks on this profound quest.
As we gaze upon this powerful image, we are reminded of the universal themes of sacrifice, self-discovery, and liberation that resonate with people across cultures and generations. It serves as a timeless reminder that true fulfillment comes not from material wealth or worldly pleasures but from within our own hearts and minds.
