Originally painted using gouache in 1943, Babuji Rajendra Shilpi’s artwork depicts his observation of Indian society prior to independence. The horizontal narrative draws on Jain and Buddhist paintings, and concludes with a vision of India at peace. Printed on fine silk, this scarf has been bought by collectors to be both worn and framed.
Care
Preserve your scarves by storing them flat, avoiding contact with water or chemicals. We recommend steaming the scarves at home to freshen them and remove creases. Cared for this way, your scarf is made to last.
