Kalighat painting is a vibrant 19th-century Indian folk art from Kolkata (formerly Calcutta), characterized by bold lines, bright watercolors, and simplified figures, originating at the Kalighat Kali Temple as souvenirs for pilgrims but evolving to depict Hindu deities, mythology, and sharp social satire on contemporary life, with distinct styles blending traditional themes and British influences\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt the heart of the composition, is a fisherwoman who sits with grace and composure, her eyes fixed lovingly on her slumbering infant nestled against her chest. Her embrace is gentle and protective, symbolising the unwavering devotion and care that mothers provide to their children. The infant, lost in the bliss of sleep, is the epitome of trust and security, finding solace in the warmth of the mother's embrace. She holds a fish in her hand, perhaps eager to make a sale, while more fish are kept around her. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eShe is accompanied by a cat, who sits beside her, happily holding a fish in its mouth. The painting beautifully portrays the strength and resilience of women who, with boundless love, provide a safe haven for their little ones. This painting is a heartfelt tribute to the enduring power of a mother's love, beautifully rendered in the tradition of Kalighat art.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Uttam Chitrakar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43992729714902,"sku":"","price":7000.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1194\/1498\/files\/Maternal-Devotion-Kalighat-Reflections-by-Uttam-Chitrakar-1.png?v=1725606375","url":"https:\/\/www.memeraki.com\/products\/maternal-love-in-kalighat-by-uttam-chitrakar","provider":"Memeraki Retail and Tech Pvt Ltd.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
