About the Artwork +

In Poonam Katoch's Kangra painting from the Ramayan series, a poignant scene unfolds as Sita Ji tenderly massages Ram's feet. This artwork is a splendid representation of Kangra painting, a distinctive form of Pahadi miniature art originating from the picturesque Kangra Valley in Himachal Pradesh.
The Kangra miniature art style, evident in this piece, encapsulates the essence of Pahadi culture, seamlessly blending grace and emotion. The painting carries subtle influences from Mughal miniatures, apparent in the meticulous detailing and refined expressions of the characters. Poonam Katoch employs a palette dominated by cool tone colors, creating a serene ambiance that complements the emotional depth of the scene. Shades of blues and greens dominate the composition, reflecting the natural beauty of the Kangra region and enhancing the tenderness of the moment.
Intricate designs, characteristic of Kangra miniatures, adorn Sita Ji's attire and the surrounding elements, contributing to the overall visual richness. The artist's skillful use of brushstrokes brings to life the intimate connection between Sita Ji and Ram, capturing a moment of love and devotion.
This painting from the Ramayan series not only depicts a moment in the epic narrative but also pays homage to the cultural heritage of Kangra miniature paintings.

Kangra Art


Amid the natural beauty of the Kangra valley, Pahari painting developed into an art of great charm and delicacy under the influence of its own early traditions as well as refined Guler and Mughal styles. In the late 18th Kangra became the most powerful hill state, under Raja Sansar Chand the Kangra art flourished. The most significant topic in contemporary paintings is still love—historical and mythical love stories are brilliantly depicted in paintings like Radha Krishna. The paintings are extremely detailed, revealing not just the main figures but also surroundings filled with carefully painted trees, flowers, and other kinds of life. They truly are poetry in their core.
