Antique Jain Cosmology Manuscript from Canonical Sources
This antique Jain cosmology manuscript painting was produced in Western India during the late 19th century. Rendered on handmade paper with mineral pigments and organic ink, it reflects Jain canonical scholarship.
Inspired by texts such as the Sangrahani Sutra and Laghu-kshetra-samasa, the manuscript conveys cosmological knowledge through symbolic diagrams. Handwritten Sanskrit and Devanagari script supports interpretation.
Natural patina, pigment softening, and paper wear confirm age and authenticity. Preserved as a disbound folio, it remains a valuable artifact for collectors and institutions.
