Queen on her Throne In Kalighat by Hasir Chitrakar

This beautiful Kalighat painting by Hasir Chitrakar vividly portrays a regal queen seated gracefully on an ornate throne, adorned with elaborate jewelry and traditional attire. The queen is the central figure, her poised expression and confident demeanor reflecting power and grace. Draped in a richly detailed green and gold veil, her attire is further embellished with delicate pearls and intricate patterns, signifying her royal stature. She sits in a relaxed posture, delicately holding the edge of her veil (pallu). Flanking her are two figures—one on the left, a blue-skinned man wearing a turban and yellow and red attire, possibly a royal attendant or a person responsible for her safety, as he holds a delicate sword in his hand. On the right, a lady clad in a blue and red striped sari stands attentively, possibly a handmaiden or a trusted confidante, she holds a betel leaf (paan) for the queen. The entire composition is framed within the traditional Kalighat style, known for its bold outlines, exaggerated facial features, and minimal background, which focuses attention on the figures and their expressions. The muted green background contrasts harmoniously with the warm tones of the garments, creating a striking visual balance. The use of simple yet expressive brushwork and vibrant colors enhances the storytelling, making this piece a fine representation of Kalighat folk art. The setting, possibly a palace chamber or an open royal court, exudes an aura of grandeur and devotion, characteristic of 19th-century Kalighat paintings. This artwork beautifully captures a moment of regal splendor, infused with cultural richness.
