Description

This exquisite traditional Indian painting from Odisha depicts a serene and powerful tableau of Lord Krishna with his two principal consorts, Satyabhama and Rukmini. The divine trio is rendered with characteristic iconographic detail, capturing Krishna, the eighth avatar of Vishnu, revered for his wisdom and playful charm, alongside Rukmini, the embodiment of devotion and grace, and Satyabhama, representing spirited devotion and prosperity. The narrative unfolds through vibrant compositions typical of the region, meticulously illustrating the beloved deities in a moment of celestial tranquility.

Crafted by the skilled hand of Rabi Behera from Puri, a renowned center for such art, this piece exemplifies the distinct medium of Paata painting, known more widely as Pattachitra. This traditional art form utilizes a specially prepared cloth canvas, meticulously painted with natural or artist colours. Behera's technique is evident in the bold, definitive outlines, the vibrant, flattened colour fields, and the intricate detailing of the figures' adornments and expressions, all hallmarks of this classical folk idiom.

As a one of a kind original creation, this painting offers an authentic piece of India's rich artistic heritage, distinct from any reproduction or print. Each brushstroke carries the unique touch of the artist. It ships accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity and benefits from complimentary insured delivery throughout India.
