Desi POP: Stolen Queen

Ravana has kidnapped Sita and is carrying her off to Lanka. As he travels towards his kingdom, the bird demigod Jatayu notices the abduction and tries to stop Ravana.

This painting captures the moment of aerial combat, where Ravana just chips off a bit of Jatayu’s wing due to Sita running interference.

An homage to Raja Ravi Varma and his most dynamic painting: the Jatayu Vadha
