Description

This exquisite Pattachitra painting from Orissa presents Chaturbhuja Lord Ganapati, the four-armed remover of obstacles and deity of wisdom, as its central focus. Encircling the beloved elephant-headed god are the Dashavatara, Lord Vishnu's ten principal incarnations, depicted in their traditional forms. These avatars, from the fish Matsya to the future Kalki, illustrate Vishnu's periodic descents to Earth to restore cosmic order, each meticulously rendered with devotional precision.

Crafted by the esteemed artist Rabi Behera from Puri, this work is a quintessential example of Orissan Paata painting. The medium, a treated cloth canvas known as 'paata', serves as the foundation for the vibrant, natural pigments. Behera’s hand technique is evident in the bold outlines, intricate detailing, and the flat, yet vivid, application of colour, characteristic of the Pattachitra tradition passed down through generations in Puri.

As a one of a kind original, this painting offers a rare opportunity to own a unique piece of India's living artistic heritage. It is not a print, but an authentic creation that ships with a signed Certificate of Authenticity. We ensure free insured delivery across India, bringing this traditional masterpiece directly to your collection.
