Review this Item

The monocolor Batik painting of Lord Vishnu and Lakshmi is an of originality, uniqueness and fineness. Batik prints of West Bengal, Orissa and Tamil Nadu are known for their originality and are the art of creating images on the cotton cloth using wax resist method. Rice starch and wax resists were used for printing.
A good sense of colour and patterns is the key for any Batik painter. Though the motifs used in batik are simple, knowledge of colour gradations and tack to remove wax finely are required.
The Batik painters apply the wax resist system. The characteristic batik effect is created by cracking of wax on the lighter hues and seeping in of the darker colours though them. Though the process is bit tedious it gives the painting a special effect.
Here the Vishnu and Lakshmi have been painted in an amorous posture along with some beautiful patters.
