A Kalighat painting uses quick, bold brushstrokes and flat watercolours on paper to show gods, goddesses and lively scenes of 19th-century Kolkata life. The style was born around the Kalighat temple for pilgrims.
Kalighat painting is an age-old craft of the patua artisanal communities of Bengal. Works are ethnic in subject with a surprisingly contemporary style, and bright colours of India. Every Indian handicraft painting is an original.

How did Kalighat painting begin?
In the 19th century, rural scroll painters settled around the Kalighat temple in Kolkata and began painting quick, affordable souvenirs for pilgrims. Their bold, simple style captured gods as well as daily life and social satire, and it later influenced modern Indian artists. Original Kalighat paintings from that period are held by museums worldwide.
Do Kalighat paintings suit modern interiors?
Yes. The bold outlines and simple backgrounds look very modern, and framed in white or black they sit well in contemporary homes, cafes and offices.
Can you supply a matching series?
Yes, artists can paint a set of three to six works on a shared theme, such as cats, musicians or goddesses, which works well for gallery walls and hotel corridors.
