PORTRAIT OF THE PAINTER
Born in an aristocratic family of Travancore, Ravi Varma was a child prodigy. Acknowledged as the father of Modern Indian Art, he evolved a unique painting style merging the traditional Indian style of painting with the European classic realism. He was the first to give a face to Hindu Gods and Goddesses by creating their realistic images.

His paintings based on stories from Indian mythology and classic literature created a pan Indian iconography which became the basis of an Indian identity.

He is acknowledged as the father of modern Indian art and the originator of what is called ‘Calendar Art’.

India – end of the 19th century. The famous artist Raja Ravi Varma is arrested and charged with obscenity, immorality and hurting religious sentiments of the people. His offence – painting of Indian mythological characters.
