INDIAN MINIATURE ART PAINTING – Indian historical places painting Style

DESCRIPTION: This beautiful Indian painting of Indian historical places painting style, depicts –

In this painting the enormous temple complex is dedicated to Shiva, known here as Sundareshvara and his consort Parvati or Meenakshi. Kulasekara Pandya, but the entire credit built the original temple for making the temple as splendid as it is today goes to the Nayaks. The Nayaks ruled Madurai from the 16th to the 18th century and left a majestic imprint of their rule in the Meenakshi - Sundareswarar Temple. The temple complex is within a high-walled enclosure, at the cores of which are the two sanctums for meenakshi and Sundareshwara, surrounded by a number of smaller shrines and grand pillared halls.

It is the 'wonder of the palace'. Actually the number of pillars counts to 985 beautifully decorated columns. Each pillar is sculptured and is a monument of the Dravidan sculpture. Just outside this mandapam, towards the west, are the Musical Pillars. Each pillar when stuck produces a different musical note.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
COLORS: These vibrant colors used in Indian Painting are natural earth color. Stone colors are just like the water colors made from stones. The artists themselves prepare these to make the gorgeous Indian painting. The raw materials include for example, vegetables and malachite (for green), fruits, mustard oil (for black), soil (for yellow), lime (for white), indigo and lapis lazuli (for blue). In olden days, eggs, gold powder, silver foil, was also used. Burnt wood was used for making the initial sketches. This is a unique method of preparation of colors has been passed down from generations, since hundreds of years ago, when it was discovered. That’s why Indian painting is having prestige in the field of Arts.

PURE GOLD: To make Indian painting precious, we are using 24 carat pure gold at ornaments and dresses in painting, as it was really used by Royal persons in olden days. It is applied with the help of the brush as a color. This unique Indian method to convert gold in to liquid form has been passed down from generations, since hundreds of years ago. So the Indian painting is really precious.

BRUSHES: These special brushes are made from the hair of the tails of squirrels and kittens, hair from the inner ears of sheep. To do miniature work on Indian painting, they also use a very special single hairbrush. This unique Indian painting method of preparation of brushes has been passed down from generations, since hundreds of years ago, when it was discovered. Therefore the Indian painting is having such stunning miniature artwork.

TIME REQUIRED: It all depends on the art work and sizes to be done. Normally it takes 10 to 15 days to make such type Indian painting of miniature artworks. Many times for special & detailed artwork, the time taken extends up to 1 month to 6 months. So, we can’t predict the exact time to make such attractive Indian Painting.

LIQUID IS HARMFUL: It is a harmful situation for water color paintings because the colors used in these paintings can easily dilute in water. It means any washing activity is injurious for artwork. So, you have to save Indian painting from water or any liquid.
If all of sudden some water drop, then you are suggested to with out folding, squeezing or disturbing (means in normal position), put in direct sun light for heating purpose and after drying, bring it back in to shade. For your kind information water can not damage oil paintings.
A simple solution to extend life of your Indian painting is to do framing. We can easily find 300 to 400 years old Indian painting in very good conditions.
