Tanjore Painting – A Royal Legacy in Every Stroke

Tanjore (Thanjavur) painting is one of the most celebrated classical art forms of South India, originating from the temple town of Thanjavur, Tamil Nadu. Known for their rich gold leaf work, vivid colors, and intricate detailing, these paintings embody divine grace and opulence.

Traditionally, Tanjore paintings depict Hindu deities such as Lord Ganesha, Krishna, Lakshmi, Saraswati, and Vishnu, often adorned with arches, thrones, and elaborate jewelry. The use of 22-karat gold foiling gives the artwork its timeless brilliance, making it glow under any light.

More than art, each Tanjore painting is a spiritual expression—created with devotion and patience, blending mythology, culture, and heritage. Today, they are treasured worldwide as sacred collectibles and are considered auspicious for homes and temples alike.

Warli Art – Stories of Life in White on Earthy Brown

Warli art is one of India’s oldest tribal art forms, originating from the Warli tribes of Maharashtra. Painted in white on mud-brown backgrounds, these artworks beautifully capture the essence of everyday rural life. Using simple geometric shapes like circles, triangles, and squares, Warli artists depict farming, dancing, hunting, and community celebrations.

What makes Warli art timeless is its storytelling nature. Each painting is more than decoration—it is a visual narrative of traditions, rituals, and harmony with nature. The central motif often includes the “Chauk” (a sacred square), symbolizing Mother Nature, around which the tribe celebrates festivals, marriages, and harvests.

Today, Warli art has found its place in modern décor, textiles, and global exhibitions while staying rooted in its tribal heritage.
