Rare Jain Manuscript Mapping the Cosmic Structure
This rare Jain cosmology manuscript painting was created in Western India during the late 19th century. Executed on handmade paper with mineral pigments and organic ink, it reflects Jain traditions of cosmological illustration.
Influenced by texts such as the Sangrahani Sutra and Uttaradhyayana Sutra, the manuscript presents symbolic diagrams explaining cosmic realms, measurements, and moral geography. Handwritten Sanskrit and Devanagari script provides interpretive guidance.
Natural patina, pigment softening, and paper wear confirm authenticity. Preserved as a disbound folio, it remains suitable for museums and collectors.
