Pahari paintings, as the name suggests, were paintings executed in the hilly regions of India, in the sub-Himalayan state of Himachal Pradesh. It is in the development and modification of Pahari paintings, that the Kangra School features. Kangra paintings belong to the school of Pahari paintings that were patronized by the Rajput rulers between the 17th and 19th centuries.The striking feature of Kangra paintings is the naturalistic style, and great attention paid to detail. The Kangra paintings feature flowering plants and creepers, and architectural elements of the time. The Kangra painters employed cool and fresh colors and with the lyrical blending of form and color.The focal theme of Kangra painting is Shringar (the erotic sentiment). The subjects seen in Kangra painting exhibit the taste and the traits of the life style of the society of that period. The love story of Radha and Krishna which was the main source of spiritual experience, portrayed incidents from the life of the young Krishna. Like the miniature featured here, the amorous plays of Krishna symbolizing soul’s devotion to God and the sentiment of love remained the inspiration and the central theme of Pahari painting. The blue-god bala (boy) Krishna and his brother balarama are seen trying to woo Radha to come out and play and frolic with them.Fill your world with beauty and wonder with this exceptional Kangra Pahari artwork.
