Description

This vibrant Paata painting portrays the sacred coronation of Lord Rama, a pivotal moment from the epic Ramayana. It captures the solemn anointing of Rama as king of Ayodhya, establishing a reign of righteousness and divine order, known as Rama Rajya. The composition masterfully depicts Rama, Sita, Lakshmana, and Hanuman, alongside other significant figures, all rendered with the characteristic iconic stylization and intricate detail of Odisha's revered Puri Pattachitra tradition. The scene glows with the spiritual significance of justice, devotion, and the ultimate triumph of dharma.

Crafted by master folk artist Rabi Behera from the temple town of Puri, this exquisite work is a testament to generations of artistic heritage. Executed on a lustrous Tussar silk fabric, the painting employs a palette of rich, natural pigments, carefully prepared and applied. The visible hand technique reveals the hallmark of Pattachitra artistry: strong, precise outlines, delicate brushwork for intricate motifs, and flat, yet vibrant, colour fields that imbue the figures with a powerful, iconic presence. The very fibre of the silk absorbs and enhances these traditional colours, lending the piece a unique depth and luminosity.

This remarkable artwork is a one-of-a-kind original, meticulously hand-painted and distinct from any print. It ships directly from our art house with a signed Certificate of Authenticity, guaranteeing its provenance and originality. We are pleased to offer free insured delivery across India, ensuring this treasured piece arrives safely at its new home.
