Artwork description:
Holy Cow.
Jaipur, India, 2015.
The cow is possibly revered in India because Hindus rely heavily on it for dairy products and for tilling the fields, and cow dung is used as a source of fuel and fertilizer. Thus, the cow’s status as a 'caretaker' led to identifying it as an almost maternal figure in the country.
Throughout India you will see cows freely roaming both the countryside and in urban contexts.
Printed on Hahnemühle Photo Rag Baryta paper with a weight of 315gsm.
Rag Baryta is a fine art paper with a very fine surface texture and a glossy Baryta coating.
