INDIAN EPIC MINIATURE ART PAINTING – Ramayana Epic painting style

DESCRIPTION: This beautiful Ramayana painting "Jatayu Fighting with Ravana" of Ramayana Epic painting style, depicts –

 In this Ramayana painting Jatayu was a brave bird in Ramayana, which fought against injustice. Ravana, the king of Lanka, was forcibly taking away Sita as a captive in his flying chariot when Rama and Lakshmana were not near her. He managed this by deceit. As the chariot was passing through the Panchavati forest, Sita was crying and calling aloud for help from all that was visible. A huge king-eagle (pakshiraj) by name Jatayu, a friend of King Dasaratha, heard the cry.

Jatayu was old but he was very strong and brave. He immediately flew up to Ravana and challenged him. Ravana, being a big and mighty warrior, thought he would make mincemeat of this big bird and started to fight. Jatayu made a great and heroic fight. He killed Ravana’s charioteer and the mules. He caused so grievous injuries on Ravana that the demon-king even swooned for a short while resumed to the fight thereafter. Jatayu too was bleeding all over his body and the blood blurred his vision.

But on seeing Sita’s sorrowful face, he went on fighting relentlessly. Finally, Ravana managed to chop the wings of Jatayu with a mighty divine sword (Chandra kharag) that he got from Lord Shiva earlier. Jatayu fell down to earth and held on his breath for some more time to tell Rama that Sita was taken away as a captive by the demon-king Ravana. Jatayu breathed his last in the lap of Rama knowing well that Rama was none other than Lord Vishnu. Rama wept unconsolably over the death of this brave bird and performed the last rites, as a son would do on his father’s death.
