The Madurai Wedding - Bengal Pattachitra Style

We are happy to present the contemporary Madurai wedding invitation in Bengal Pattachitra style!

Sri Meenakshi Thirukalyanam is the most well-known divine wedding.

Meenakshi Thirukalyanam was a representation of the fabled holy wedding. In this representation, God Sundareshwar, Goddess Meenakshi, and Meenakshi's brother, God Mahavishnu, were all seated on a gorgeous lotus that was in full bloom. This scene is a reflection of the love and bond between God Sundareshwar and Goddess Meenakshi.

Bengal's Pattachitra art is known by its vivid colours, strong brushstrokes, and precise shading. In India, it is commonly referred to as Jamini Roy's painting style. It is a piece of West Bengal's mythological and traditional history. The Patuas engage in pattachitra, a particular folk art form that involves visual storytelling, as part of which they perform songs. On lengthy scrolls, the chitrakars, or mythological story painters, illustrate mythological tales (family surname).

The most common subjects for pattachitra paintings are animals, gods, goddesses, flowers, insects, people and landscapes.
