Description

This vibrant Pattachitra painting from Orissa masterfully depicts Lord Krishna alongside his principal queens, Rukmini and Satyabhama, a sacred tableau celebrating divine love and devotion. Rukmini, the unwavering devotee, and Satyabhama, the embodiment of courage, flank Krishna in a composition that radiates spiritual grace. Below this central theme, the artwork unfolds a comprehensive representation of Lord Vishnu's Dashavatara, the ten cardinal incarnations including Matsya, Kurma, Varaha, Narasimha, Vamana, Parashurama, Rama, Krishna, Buddha, and Kalki, each meticulously rendered to illustrate Vishnu's cosmic interventions to uphold dharma across epochs.

Crafted by the esteemed artist Rabi Behera from Puri, this piece is a testament to the enduring tradition of Odishan Pattachitra. The 'paata' or prepared cloth canvas is meticulously adorned using natural, vibrant artist colours and fine brushes, often fashioned from squirrel or mouse hair. The characteristic bold outlines, intricate details, and rich pigment application, derived from mineral and plant sources, exemplify the traditional hand technique, revealing the painter's precise skill and profound connection to this ancient art form.

As a one of a kind original painting, this work is not a print, ensuring its unique value and artistic integrity. It will be dispatched with a signed Certificate of Authenticity and benefits from complimentary insured delivery across India, offering peace of mind to the discerning collector.
