About the Artwork +

Uttam Chitrakar portrays the essence of one of India's most grand and cherished festivals, Durga Puja. The painting unfolds like a tapestry of colours, emotions, and devotion. At its heart stands the resplendent image of Goddess Durga, the divine mother, depicted with multiple arms, each bearing a weapon, signifying her strength and valor. She radiates power and benevolence, adorned in magnificent attire and intricate jewellery, her eyes aglow with compassion. The painting is a celebration of the artistic heritage of Kalighat, with its bold, bright colours that bring the deities to life. The characters are depicted with distinctive facial expressions that convey their emotions, whether it's Durga's fierce determination or Saraswati's serene wisdom. This masterpiece is a testament to the timeless appeal of Kalighat painting and its ability to preserve and celebrate the cultural heritage of India.

    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.
