A Study on Social Life and Religion in Bagan Period with Special Reference to Mural Paintings

Abstract

This paper aimed to know not only the status of highly developed culture in Bagan period which flourished throughout of Myanmar history but also the fine arts in those days based on the religion. A mural is a painting on a wall, ceiling, or other large permanent surface. Sorts of murals date to prehistoric times can be explored inside the caves, temples and pagodas. There are many techniques. The most well known is probably "fresco", which uses water soluble paints with a damp lime wash, a rapid use of the resulting mixture over a large surface, and often in parts. The colors lighten when they are dried. Most of the mural paintings can be seen in many "gu" or caves in Bagan. Because of very little lights inside the caves, the paintings still remain as nearly the same as the original ones, but some of them have been damaged badly due to severe weather and other circumstances.
