Description
Hari-Hara paintings are a specific type of Kalighat paintings that depict the Hindu deities Hari (Vishnu) and Hara (Shiva) together as a composite deity. These paintings emerged in the late 19th century in the Kalighat area of Kolkata, India, and are considered a unique form of Indian folk art.
Hari-Hara paintings depict the two gods with combined features, creating a harmonious fusion of Vishnu’s benevolent and Shiva’s destructive aspects.
The paintings are known for their bold and colorful style, with thick black outlines and flat areas of color, and are often characterized by their whimsical and exaggerated depiction of the gods.
Hari-Hara paintings are prized for their lively and distinctive style, and are considered an important part of Indian cultural heritage. They provide a visual representation of the Hindu concept of the unity of opposites, and are a testament to the creativity and ingenuity of the artists who created them.
