Back From The Market

This captivating painting depicts a scene of the 'Babu' just back from the market with the day's catch. Hand-painted with graceful lines and intricate detail, it effortlessly blends cultural nostalgia with contemporary aesthetics.

Inspired by the Kalighat Potochitra style that flourished in 19th-century Bengal, the artwork showcases the signature exaggerated features, expressive faces, and sensual, curvaceous forms—set against a deliberately minimal backdrop that draws focus to character and emotion. Originally developed by patuas (scroll painters) to reflect social satire and urban life, this style bridges tradition and modernity in a truly unique visual language.
