Batik form of art is one of the oldest art form in India, which can be traced back to around 2000 years back. Batik paintings normally contain murals, wall hangings, paintings, household linen, and scarves are treasured possessions of any household in India. This genre of paintings on cotton cloth is found in West Bengal, Orissa and Tamil Nadu and have been known for their originality, uniqueness and fineness. Images such as one in the above painting on the battle of Kurukshetra that is considered a battle for dharma (religion) is created on the cotton cloth using wax resist method. This huge painting could be very useful for wall hanging because of its bi size. The chariot, Lord Krishna, who is riding the chariot and his associate Arjun and the horses have been treated in a most majestic manner. In the battle of Kurukshetra a war was raised between the forces of evil (Kaurab) and the forces of truth (Pandav) whereas the Lord Krishna takes side of the Pandavas. Indeed a most gracious painting.
