Hand Painted Shiv Darbar Tanjore Painting: 24K Gold Foil

Shiv comes from Sanskrit “śiva,” meaning “auspicious” or “benevolent,” symbolizing transformation and cosmic balance.
Darbar derives from Persian, meaning “royal court” or “assembly,” signifying authority and divine audience.
Together, Shiv Darbar represents supreme order and harmony, rendered through devotional art as a symbol of protection and grace

This Tanjore masterpiece makes a commanding presence in any interior, radiating devotion and grandeur. We would recommend placing it in a central living space, meditation corner, or altar to enhance its spiritual aura. Its intricate 24K gold accents bring a luminous charm that pairs beautifully with both traditional and contemporary décor. What colours would work well with the piece.

To preserve the beauty of this Tanjore painting, keep it away from direct sunlight to protect the natural pigments and delicate gold foil work. Dust gently with a soft, dry cloth to maintain its brilliance, avoiding any pressure on the surface. Ensure it is not exposed to moisture or humidity, as this can damage both the paint and the base. Do not use water, sprays, or cleaning agents on the artwork. For long-lasting protection and to retain its splendour, we recommend framing it under glass.
