Abstract
If we see in the historical context of Indian painting, then the ancient Ajanta and Bagh frescoes of India were influenced by Buddhism. It also reflects the activities of Indian social life of that time. Similarly, Mughal and Rajput miniature paintings have presented the true form of the society of that time through their paintings. Similarly, the paintings of Pattachitra style changed their form by mixing these styles. In Odisha, Shri Jagannath is worshiped in the form of Shri Krishna. The establishment of Jagannath's form in Puri during the time of Anantvarman (destruction of Indian culture by Muslim invaders) and the propagation of Jagannath temple led to the emergence of this famous style. The confluence of devotion, art and culture here gave birth to a new art style which is famous as Pattachitra style. It is a unique elegance and extraordinary art, which while maintaining its traditionalism has also clothed itself with modernity. Its entire form has been a specific religious and ritualistic. The creation and development of Pattachitra in the form it is today is the result of many ages. Odisha is famous all over the world mainly for Pattachitras and temples. The paintings which are made for the promotion of Jagannath temple, which the painters paint in a very beautiful and ornate form, which are called Patachitra and the subjects of Pattachitra are based on the stories of Lord Jagannath i.e., Krishna. Pattachitra art has been a more elaborate and decorative art. Traditionally, thick, and bright colors are used in Pattachitra even today. It is influenced by the miniature style. Beautifully colored clothes, adornments in Pattachitra usually enhance its beauty. There is beauty in these Pattachitras as well as different colors and themes are revealed. Lord Jagannath is specially depicted in Pattachitra. The constructions of the structures of these paintings are usually made tall and large. The theme of these Pattachitras is favorable to the festivals, due to which happiness and enthusiasm is visible in them. Throughout the year, all the festivals, Rath Yatra, Boitabandana and Krishna Leelas etc. are specially portrayed. With trees like mango, kadam, kaner, coconut etc. made in Pattachitra, the stars twinkling in the Nilgagan, the shining moon of the full moon, the lotus flowers floating in the pond, the cow, the deer, the peacock and the marking of the Yamuna look very beautiful.
