A tale from Ramayana in Bengal Pattachitra

A depiction of a tale from Ramayana is illustrated in Bengal Pattachitra, a traditional Indian folk art form of West Bengal.

Maricha is an important character in Ramayana, who led to an unexpected turn of events by helping Ravana to kidnap Sita. Ravana wanted Maricha to be a golden deer with attractive spots on the body and wander near the hermitage of Rama, so Sita would like to play with it.

Sita saw the deer near the river and she pointed it out to Rama. Maricha acted as if it was hurt. Sita persuaded Rama to get her the deer.

Rama went after the deer, it kept on appearing and disappearing. After a long chase, Rama felt something was wrong and shot him down. Maricha took his real form.
