ABOUT THE PAINTING-
Kalighat paintings, also known as Kalighat Patachitra are another form of local trend in paintings prevalent throughout the late 18th and 19th century around Kolkata's kalighat temple. This style originated after colonial rule when the Bengal Artists lost their livelihood and hence to survive, they started painting Kalighat Patachitras. The subject of these paintings has evolved with time as earlier artists used to paint on traditional regional subjects, but now they also depict the incoherence of urban life in their paintings.
