Pithora painting is a sacred, ritualistic folk art practiced by tribes in Gujarat, India, invoking deities for prosperity and fertility, depicting legends of creation, horses, and daily life. Key elements include seven horses representing the seven hills (deities), riders (gods), the sun, moon, and scenes of agriculture and wildlife. As beautiful as it is, such paintings are created not for decoration, but as an offering of gratitude to Baba Pithora, the god of food grains, or to mark occasions like weddings or curing illness. Hopefully, those gods will bless the owner of the painting as well!
Measuring a whopping 32" x 20", this acrylic painting on canvas is in immaculate condition, as pictured.
