A beautiful and vibrant hand painted wall décor artifact, this vibrant, rustic painting will always be a statement piece. ‘Patua scroll painting’ is an art form native to West Bengal. Traditionally, Patua paintings originated in the form of scrolls used as a story telling medium by the "Patuas" wandering artists / Bards. Patua scroll painters wandered from village to village singing stories about pictures depicted in their scrolls to make a living. These paintings are made on handmade paper, with a cloth backing. Indigenous plants and minerals are still used to create the paint, including turmeric, vermillion, and burnt rice. Sap of the bel (wood-apple) fruit is used as mordant.
