About the Artwork +

Refined artist Bapi Chitrakar's "A Bibi's Tranquil Moment" in Kalighat Painting transports the viewers into the captivating world of this traditional art form. The vibrant colors and intricate patterns of Kalighat painting come alive in this masterpiece. With rich, earthy tones and fine details, it tells the story of a bibi (lady) immersed in her world, savoring tea and a good book. This art form, rooted in rural Bengal, combines storytelling and intricate motifs, originating from 19th-century temple art. The intricate detailing and vibrant hues make each Kalighat painting a visual delight.
