About the Artwork +

Bapi Chitrakar portrays a captivating scene with vibrant colours and intricate detailing. At its heart is the harmonious exchange of musical knowledge, as a seasoned music teacher imparts the art of melody to a diligent student. The teacher, seated gracefully in a sturdy wooden chair, exudes an air of wisdom and mastery. His eyes are focused, and their hands move gracefully over the harmonium's keys, producing a symphony of melodious notes. With each touch, the harmonium breathes life into the room, its rich timbre filling the air. With a music notebook spread open in her hand, the student attentively followed the teacher's lead. Delicate music notes and intricate compositions are painstakingly transcribed onto the pages, a testament to the student's dedication to the art. The painting captures the essence of the musical tradition being passed down through generations, highlighting the profound connection between the teacher and the student.

Bapi Chitrakar blue-tick

Bapi Chitrakar, a seasoned artist since childhood, hails from a lineage deeply rooted in artistry. Embracing Islamic faith, Patua artists like Bapi Chitrakar exemplify a distinct, inclusive artistic tradition. They breathe life into narratives from Hindu Mythology, local folklore, Sufi wisdom, and contemporary themes through the mesmerizing fusion of paintings and songs. While tracing the exact origins of Patua tradition poses a challenge, some believe its oral form dates back to the 10th or 11th century CE, with tangible scrolls emerging in the 18th century CE.

Art Form

Kalighat

The Kalighat paintings developed in the 19th century in the Bengal presidency. The travelling scroll painters or the patuas had been practising folk art of Pattachitra. The new manners and customs of the British settlers, the revivalist exercises of the Mughal and theatres as well as the use of Sanskrit on stage was absorbed by the rural artists who had migrated to Calcutta and developed it into a popular urban genre. The period of Kalighat paintings coincides with the age of mechanical reproduction in the form of woodcut, lithography, oleography and printing. These developments had caused mass consumption of imagery in the urban cities and Kalighat was a response to it. The Kalighat painters interacted with the colonial paintings and began the use of water colours, shaded figures, folio-sized mill made papers. They absorbed the role of the western theatre performances and the art schools which developed the unique stylistic features of the Kalighat paintings as we know them today. More here on our blog.
