Event Details : 'Poetry Of The Hills' documentary film screening. 
The film presents selected masterpieces of beautiful Kangra miniatures, from museum collections around the world. It evokes the rarefied, an exquisite world of Pahari paintings.
The exquisite miniatures paintings of Kangra are perhaps among the finest ever made by man. These paintings bring to us the gentlest and most tender thoughts. They enshrine a deep love for all of creation, in a manner which is intensely personal and deeply devoted.
The world of Kangra paintings is one of tenderness and love. It is the spirit of Bhakti, the ecstatic joy of adoration, the supreme joy of the giving of oneself in the love of the divine which pervades the entire world of these paintings.
The scenes of Krishna’s childhood exploits are particularly endearing and evoke the tender sentiments of the worshippers. We have beautiful paintings on the exquisite theme of Baby Krishna: the Lord as a mischievous child, with his playful antics, giving no end of trouble to his mother.
