The Daily Village: An Agricultural Harvest Scene In Cheriyal Scroll by Sai Kiran

Hailing from Telangana, India, Cheriyal Scroll painting is a lively and fascinating tradition of visual storytelling. These long, painted scrolls come alive with bright colours and energetic characters, depicting narratives ranging from Hindu epics and local legends to reflections on current social themes, all within a unique artistic framework. This captivating Cheriyal Scroll painting by Sai Kiran offers a vivid and heartfelt portrayal of rural agricultural life, centered around the rhythmic labor of men and women displaying the harmony between people and nature. Set against a warm, earthy backdrop, the painting is divided into two planes that bring together the activities of sowing, harvesting, and foraging, encapsulating the seasonal essence of a village paddy field. In the foreground, two women in traditional sarees—one in blue and the other in a red and yellow combination—are seen engaged in sowing seeds by hand. Their bent postures, adorned with jewelry and marked by expressive faces, reflect dedication, patience, and an intimate connection to the soil. Their rhythmic motion and focused expressions give life to the fertile land beneath them, depicted with rows of green paddy shoots and white strokes indicating sprouting or water. Nearby, a third woman, clad in an orange saree, is shown harvesting mature crops with a sickle in hand, carefully bundling the grain. Her movement adds a dynamic energy to the composition. At the top of the frame, a male figure carries a large bundle of cut grass on his head—possibly the harvest for sale—walking across a hilly green field, providing balance and reinforcing the collaborative spirit of rural labor. The bold outlines, flat perspective, and vibrant palette—hallmarks of the Cheriyal style—infuse this pastoral scene with timeless charm and cultural richness, celebrating the beauty, dignity, and interdependence of village life and agricultural tradition in Telangana.
