羽を広げないかとずっと待ってましたが、ダメでした

顔がいいからいいか

I waited him to spread his tail but he didn't.

So I took his handsome face. Great blue!

“The name of this bowed instrument means peacock, the bird associated with Saraswati, the goddess of music. Popular at 19th century courts, it derives its form from the dilruba, an instrument combining features of other Indian stringed instruments like the sarangi and the sitar.”

finally posting this! have some more bird characters! I wanted to make my own indian peacock designs with rajasthani/east indian influence. 

Don’t have much on them besides that they’re a wealthy noble family who is in touch/trades with Jiang’s clan.

As the peacock fly

I had wanted to take a photo of indian peacocks actually flying for years. The large and heavy birds with their train of feathers are able to fly, but often they prefer walking. Flying is hard work.

Not this one. He and his flock of peafowls where walking on the roofs of the buildings of the Lamido palace in Ngouandéré. Getting around meant flying. And I spent some quality time walking after them waiting for the jump and flight.

The local chieftain/king/Lamido in Nguandere had this old, classic symbol of power and wealth - peacocks wandering free in his private gardens.

They are not elegant flyers.

Royal symbol

The indian name for peafowl is Mayura, meaning killer of snakes. Understandably, a fashion statement that is actually useful probably help them being closely connected to culture and power.

Killing of snakes is also symbolic for cycling of time.

According to myths, the Mayura was created by feathers from Garuda, a highly important birddemigod in hinduism and buddhist culture.

Lakshmi, the consort of Vishnu, have peafowl as her symbol.

RE: cultural appropriation primarily being about an economic state of affairs where white people make money off of other people, a related idea I've been contemplating but haven't been able to like. Finish writing about is the idea of cultural decontextualization, which is when a cultural majority (often but not always white people) engage with another culture in a manner that erases- and may simultaneously replicate- racist histories, and is more about creating false narratives than economics.

A personal example would be white people making clothes based off of Coptic Egyptian artifacts, especially while generically referring to them as "Roman" or arguing Coptic art does not exist, which denies Copts part of Coptic history while resurrecting the French Coptomania of the 1920s, and specifically Albert Gayet's actions of taking items from Coptic graves to the point where a model was dressed in a tunic and shown off (which is also terrible from an artifact preservation perspective- this tunic would've been at minimum, 1300 years old at the time).

#cipher talk #Other examples are a lot of shit historical customers do #Like the Cathy Hay peacock dress debacle. Given that an Indian embroiderer faced heavy harassment it counts on both fronts #A lot of what Fr*da K*hlo did to my understanding also counts- both for CA and CD #Just going off what I've read from LatAm (for lack of a better word) Indigenous people have to say about her #There is also sometimes an economic element here #Like plenty of these replicas are sold #Plus it results in bad history #The Persian riding coats found in late Antiquity Egypt cannot be taken as 'typical Roman soldiers kit' #They're representative of a specific relationship Coptic Egypt had to Persia in late Antiquity #But I see drawings featured in academic sources misrepresenting this but shoeing a white Roman soldier in one at least a century before the #Evidence we have for them existing in Egypt #And plenty of white re-enactors claiming these are examples of fibulatron #They are not!!!
