Pattern Rich Wall Art

Pattern Rich — 10 museum-grade prints that set the mood. Madhubani — Mithila painting from the Mithila region of Bihar and adjoining Nepal — traditionally covered courtyard and interior walls for weddings, festivals, and seasonal rites, with knowledge passed matrilineally. William G. Jaipur is the capital of Rajasthan and a UNESCO World Heritage City, planned in 1727 by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II around a grid of pink sandstone buildings. The Hawa Mahal honeycomb facade and Amber Fort hill palace are its most photographed landmarks — but Rajasthani visual culture also lives in everyday jharokha balconies, jali screens, and block-printed textiles that this poster abstracts into horizontal bands. Bharni is the Brahmana women's filling tradition within Madhubani painting — historically distinct from Kayastha Kachni line work and Dusadh Godna tattoo stipple. Where Kachni builds form through parallel hatching alone, Bharni declares in vermillion, cobalt, purple, ochre, and lampblack solids bounded by bold double outlines — the style traditionally served deities, peacocks, fish, harvest women, and wedding-procession scenes on interior walls.
