Beloved mother of the universe, Durga, seen here as Mahishasurmardini, resplendent and glorious. She is flanked by her children, Ganesh, Lakshmi, Saraswati and Kartik, and her trusted mount, the lion.
This tableau is very familiar and dear to all devotees of the mother goddess. Painted beautifully by master artist, Swarna Chitrakar, this work is imbued with great charm and delight.
About the artist: Swarna Chitrakar, a doyenne of Kalighat painting, belongs to a family of Patuas who practice this unique folk art of painting-cum-storytelling through songs. Over the last two decades, her work has won critical acclaim across India and around the world. Feted globally, Swarna has showcased her work and collaborated with artists across the US, UK, and Europe. Her paintings are sought after by connoisseurs and collectors.
Geographical Indication: Bengal Patachitra has been accorded a Geographical Indications (GI) tag in 2018. The GI tag is specifically attributable to the artwork's place of origin (West Bengal, Pingla, Naya village), and the materials and techniques used (Hand painted, using organic pigments on handmade paper.) The artist is among the select practitioners who are recipients of the GI certificate, which conveys an assurance of quality and distinctiveness.
