拍品專文

The tilaks (marks on the forehead) indicate that these men and their sons are followers of a certain aspect of Vishnu. One of the manuscripts starts with an invocation (śrī gopījanavallabha) which is common in texts belonging to the Vallabhacharyas or followers of the pushti marg. For a short discussion on Vallabhacharya, see the preceding lot.
