ABOUT TANJORE PAINTINGS
Tanjore paintings are classical south Indian painting style, that originated from Tanjore in Tamil Nadu back in the 17th century. These paintings are characterized by their rich and vivid colors, simple iconic composition, glittering gold foils overlaid on delicate but extensive gesso work and inlay of glass beads and pieces or very rarely precious and semi-precious gems. They essentially symbolize ancient themes of traditional gods and goddesses.
DESCRIPTION
The deity Lord Shiva at the Thiruvannamalai Temple, Tamil Nadu, India, is represented in the form of ‘Lingam’ and is called Agni Lingam. Goddess Parvati, who is the consort of Lord Shiva, is called Unnamalai Amman. God Annamalaiyar is highly revered in Tevaram, which is Tamil sacred work by the saint poets nayanars, in the seventh century. The temple gains a lot of significance for being in the classification of Paadal Petra Sthalam, as well as for being a place where Tiruvempaavai was composed by the poet Manikkavasagam in the ninth century.
