Gold, colour and devotion come together in the richly ornamented world of Thanjavur painting. Originating in Thanjavur, Tamil Nadu, this distinctive tradition is known for its raised relief work, shimmering gold foil, glass and stone embellishments, and central depictions of deities and saints. Shaped by South Indian artistic traditions and developed under the Nayak and Maratha rulers of Thanjavur, the art form remains a celebrated part of Tamil Nadu’s cultural heritage.
Swipe to discover what gives Thanjavur paintings their distinctive glow and depth.

Open your sides and energize your body with Trikonasana!
Trikonasana helps make the spine flexible, strengthens the calf, thigh and waist muscles, and may help improve lung capacity. Keep the stretch gentle and breathe steadily while holding the pose.
Caution: Avoid this posture if you have a slipped disc or sciatica, or after abdominal surgery. Do not overdo the lateral stretch; if you cannot reach the feet, hold the knees instead.
