Moments of Husband and Wife:Kalighat painting by Hasir Chitrakar

 Hasir Chitrakar portrays an endearing Kalighat painting with a glimpse into the intimate world of Babu and Biwi, a married couple from a bygone era. They are seated lovingly on a traditional cot within the comfort of their home, their gazes tenderly locked in affectionate communion. This artwork serves as a quintessential representation of Kalighat's artistry, known for its depiction of everyday life and human emotions. The Babu, handsome in his traditional attire, exudes an air of grace and dignity. With his elaborate dhoti ,he epitomises the sophistication and charm of the Bengali elite. The Biwi is equally captivating, seated gracefully on the cot, her richly decorated saree and ornate jewellery adding an opulent touch to her appearance. Her demeanour reflects a blend of modesty and allure as her eyes meet those of her husband, creating an atmosphere of profound connection and love. Under the cot lies a hookah, symbolising leisure and relaxation. Its presence speaks to the couple's shared moments of companionship and respite within the walls of their home. This enchanting artwork invites viewers to witness the timeless beauty of human connection and love in their most intimate and cherished form.
