Tanjore paintings are characterized by their unique style, which involves a meticulous layering process. Artists use raised gesso work (a paste-like material) to create relief details, which are then adorned with vibrant colors and intricate gold leaf work. The skillful application of gold leaf adds a divine radiance to the artwork, enhancing its aesthetic appeal and spiritual significance. Traditional colors are employed, lending a timeless quality to the scene. The entire composition is carefully framed, adding to its elegance and making it ready to be displayed in your home or office. Display this painting in your home to inspire devotion and instill an aura of serenity, reminding you of the virtues of righteousness, love, and selfless service.
