Description

This traditional Pattachitra painting from Orissa masterfully depicts Mirabai, the revered 16th-century Rajput princess and devotee of Krishna. Her unwavering devotion is central to the composition, surrounded by the Dashavatara, the ten principal incarnations of Vishnu. Each avatar, from Matsya, the fish, to Kalki, the future incarnation, is rendered with meticulous detail, symbolising divine protection and the cosmic cycle, beautifully complementing Mirabai's spiritual quest for union with the divine.

Crafted by Rabi Behera from Puri, a region renowned for its rich artistic heritage, this exquisite Paata painting exemplifies the distinct Pattachitra tradition. The artist employs a vibrant palette of natural and artist colours, applied with delicate brushwork on treated cloth. The characteristic fine lines, intricate patterning, and iconographic precision reveal a mastery of a technique passed down through generations, making this piece a testament to living craft.

As a singular artistic creation, this handmade Pattachitra is a one of a kind original work, not a print. It arrives accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity, assuring its provenance and craftsmanship. We provide free insured delivery across India, ensuring your acquisition reaches you safely and securely.
