It emerged in 19th-century Kolkata, under the British rule. The Kalighat Temple in southern Kolkata drew large numbers of devotees and European visitors, prompting craftsmen and artisans from nearby villages to migrate there in search of work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese artists, originally painters of scrolls or Pattachitra, began creating a new style of painting that was minimalistic. The work usually features one or two figures \u0026amp; bold outlines. This evolution gave rise to what is now known as the Kalighat style of painting.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn recent years, the artworks have taken on a more light-hearted, humorous character, frequently portraying couples in candid and intimate scenes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey sometimes depict, the male figure, or babu moshai, usually shown hopelessly smitten — the classic, comically henpecked husband doing anything to keep her happy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese compositions have been created by the artist exclusively for our store \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeing hand painted, this product is unique in itself, and its tiny imperfections are what make it special.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eComes with a hook at the back to hang on walls.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note:\u003c\/strong\u003e The actual colors may vary based on the screen resolution of your device.
