Image description

An Ancient Coronation. The original, a fresco in the caves at Ajanta (Deccan), still exists in colours and was painted about 500 AD. The upper part of the panel shows the King on his throne being anointed with consecrated oil poured out of earthen vessels, while he touches offerings made by the Queen. Other figures in the vestibule to the hall where the King sits are bringing more offerings and oil. Mendicants without are begging for alms. Below women are presenting heads to a priest in token of the human sacrifices made on such occasions. Illustration for Hutchinson's History of the Nations (Hutchinson, c.1920). Note: Image has been digitally enhanced to facilitate repro.
