Ram Pattaabhek

Ram Pattaabhek (with Burma cloth) depicts the coronation of Lord Rama, a moment of divine kingship and restored dharma, often rendered with rich ceremonial detail and courtly grandeur. Such prints were enhanced using imported Burma silk cloth, applied to garments to create a tactile, luxurious effect. The Burma paper silk embellishment technique involved pasting fine, semi-transparent silk fabric onto specific areas—like robes and ornaments—over the printed surface. This hybrid decorative method elevated ordinary lithographs into premium devotional images, adding texture, sheen, and a sense of opulence highly valued by collectors
