Lord Krishna was a charmer and a perfect desired husband for all the gopis of Vrindavan. Rabi Behera in his Pattachitra art has depicted Lord Krishna in his most popular representation of playing a flute arousing melodious and magical tunes of love while being surrounded by the harmonious gopis. A pattachitra form is a famous folk art form from Orissa done on a gauze-like cotton cloth canvas in a disciplined manner depicting the great mythological themes using natural colors and motifs of flowers. Also a floral border is a must have when we talk about the key features of a pattachitra painting.
Seated under a densely flowered tree, Lord Krishna amuses the three gopis seated on his either side with the sounds from his flute. The black background is suggestive of a night time with the stars twinkling all around in the sky and all the damsels enjoying the vibrating yet peaceful sounds of the flute, while adoring Lord Krishna’s sparking charm simultaneously. Krishna is adorned in a rich dhoti patterned in varied designs along with a thin designer stole hung across his shoulders. All the three gopis are garbed in luxuriant silk saris decorated in tiny and stylized flower motifs that complement with the overall theme of the painting.
The rich jewels that the gopis and Lord Krishna are embellished with, are a way of enhancing their beauteous personalities. The artist has amazingly painted their hairs by filling the space with neat and tidy criss-cross lines and stylized crown glorifying their heads. All the figurines are seated in their most comfortable postures and are depicted with a happy face and pattachitra iconic, elongated eyes. This black and white Lord Krishna patta painting completed with a multiple floral border will ornate your house walls beautifully.
