Chowkas Pot Maa Durga Singhabahini (Digital Print)

Description Originating in the 11th century, Patachitra is an ancient artform of Bengal which is practiced to this day by a tribe of painters called ‘Patuas’. Traditionally they draw mythological figures, Hindu Gods and Goddesses on hand-made paper pasted on a piece of cloth using natural colors derived from herbs, flowers or other materials like soil & indigo. The Chowkas Pot Maa Durga Singhabahini painting brings to life the familiar visual of Goddess Durga which is worshipped during Durga Puja. Here the goddess is seen slaying the demon king, Mahishasura, accompanied by her 4 children & her fearless vahana, Lion (Singha). A true collector’s item, this original Pata, is hand painted by a master craftswoman of West Bengal.
