About Jatayu Vadham
One of the best art works by Raja Ravi Varma. Raja Ravi Varma painted the picture in 1895 at the age of around 45 years. Thus, the gathered knowledge and experience of painting art is clearly visible in the current painting. This oil on canvas painting is currently residing in Sri Chitra Art Gallery, Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, India. There is also another version by the artist of the same incident. The painting by the Indian artist represents the exact moment when Ravan cut off the wing. After that Jatayu was unable to fly anymore and fell on the ground. Although, the painting doesn’t include the Pushpak Vimana which is present in the folklore, the essence of the scene represents them all flying. Sita is grabbed by Ravana in one hand while fighting with another hand. As much shame Sita is feeling to be in hands of other man than his husband, she is also unable to see the old Jatayu’s wings cut off and death. Thus, she has hid her face arms in agony. Ravana’s stance and face represents his victory. The realization of winning the battle has made him happy and smiling viciously. Although, a bird’s face can’t provide enough expressions, but we can assume that Jatayu is also in shock with her one wing cut off. The clothes and garments of both Ravana and Sita are contemporary to the epic’s time when along with women wealthy people and kings also wore enough ornaments About the Large Art Prints
