Shantanu and Ganga Painting – Raja Ravi Varma Mahabharata Wall Art | MeriDeewar

This painting captures the mythological tale of King Shantanu and the river goddess Ganga from the Mahabharata. Raja Ravi Varma portrays the serene yet poignant moment of their union, highlighting both royal dignity and divine grace. The composition reflects the balance of human emotion and cosmic destiny, with Ganga’s flowing form symbolizing purity, devotion, and the inexorable forces of fate.

The story behind the scene is central to the Mahabharata narrative. Shantanu, a mortal king, falls in love with Ganga, who imposes a condition that tests his devotion and patience. Their relationship brings forth the birth of the eight Vasus, weaving divine intervention and human responsibility into a complex tale of dharma. Symbolically, this moment represents love, sacrifice, and the intertwining of mortal life with divine will.

For viewers, the painting evokes admiration, reflection, and connection to timeless Indian epics. Displayed in living rooms, studies, or offices, it enriches any wall with cultural depth and narrative significance. The artwork resonates with collectors of Raja Ravi Varma, Mahabharata-inspired wall art, and traditional Indian paintings.
