{"product_id":"gautam-buddha-with-lord-vishnus-dashavatara","title":"Gautam Buddha with Lord Vishnu's Dashavatara Pattachitra Painting on Cloth","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis exquisite Orissan Pattachitra painting presents a profound convergence of spiritual narratives. At its heart is Gautam Buddha, rendered with serene dignity, sharing the canvas with the revered Dashavatara, the ten principal incarnations of Lord Vishnu. The Dashavatara represent Vishnu's descents to Earth to restore cosmic order, typically including Matsya, Kurma, Varaha, Narasimha, Vamana, Parashurama, Rama, Balarama or Krishna, and Buddha, culminating with Kalki. Here, Buddha is depicted as the ninth avatar, a significant theological integration often seen in Orissan artistic traditions, symbolising divine intervention for peace and dharma. The intricate detailing and vibrant palette characteristic of this school vividly bring these sacred figures to life, each avatar distinctly articulated within the devotional composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCrafted by the skilled hand of Rabi Behera from Puri, a renowned center for Pattachitra painting, this remarkable piece exemplifies the distinctive artistic heritage of Orissa. The medium is a traditional paata, a cloth canvas prepared through an age-old process of coating with tamarind seed gum and chalk, providing a smooth, durable surface for painting. Using a palette of natural or artist colours, Behera employs precise brushwork and crisp lines to delineate the figures and their attributes, a hallmark of this regional style. The careful layering of pigment and the meticulous outlining reveal the artist's dedication to preserving the authenticity and visual richness of this ancestral craft.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs a testament to its singular artistic merit, this work is a one of a kind original painting, not a print. It is offered with a signed Certificate of Authenticity, ensuring its provenance and value. We are pleased to include complimentary insured delivery across India, ensuring this spiritual masterpiece reaches its new home safely and securely.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rabi Behera, Puri","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48428229820674,"sku":"WRB803","price":4410.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0820\/7230\/5922\/files\/wrb803.webp?v=1788384475","url":"https:\/\/karm108.com\/products\/gautam-buddha-with-lord-vishnus-dashavatara","provider":"Karm 108","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
