The beautiful painting of the Mother Goddess Durga killing the demon Mahishasur is given a fine portrayal by the artist. Derived from the Sanskrit words patta (a piece of cloth), chitra (painting or picture), Patachitra is a folk art form drawn on a piece of silk, cotton or any other fabric, portraying traditional motifs and imageries of religion and society. A number of floral designs add some sparks to the painting. |
