Tiger Woman, 19th century, Opaque watercolor on paper, image: 9 1/2 × 10 1/8 in. (24.1 × 25.7 cm), The woman in this painting, who shed her sari on the riverbank while being pursued by two men, has submerged her tiger body in the river. Her human head remains above the water, and her unbound hair wafts along the currents. Woman-tiger hybrids have a long history in Indian visual and literary culture; at least one such figure was recorded on seals produced during the Indus Valley Civilization in the first millennium B.C.E. This powerful being, with her feline-headed paws, likely illustrates an as-yet-unidentified tale from classic literature. , India, Indian, India, Mughal dynasty (15261857), Paintings.
