About the Artwork +

Bapi Chitrakar portrays the profound bond between a man and his loyal canine companion. The setting is simple, with a man seated comfortably in a chair, his expression filled with affection and a sense of connection. In one hand, he holds a tempting treat, a gesture of kindness and reward for his faithful dog. Kneeling faithfully by his side, the dog gazes up at its master with devoted eyes, filled with trust and anticipation. The simplicity of the moment captures the essence of companionship and the unspoken understanding that exists between humans and their four-legged friends. With a gentle, outstretched hand, the man points towards the treat, signifying a playful yet profound connection. This scene is a tribute to the deep and unwavering bond that exists between humans and their canine friends, a connection that transcends words and is woven from the threads of trust, affection, and the shared experiences of life.

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. Embark on a vibrant journey through history and culture with Bapi Chitrakar's captivating creations!



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.
