Lakshmi, the great goddess of abundance, prosperity, and beauty, here seated majestically on her mount, the owl, rendered exquisitely in Kalighat style by master artist Swarna Chitrakar.

Feted globally, Swarna has showcased her work and collaborated with artists across the US, UK, and Europe. Her paintings are sought after by connoisseurs and collectors.
Geographical Indication: Bengal Patachitra has been accorded a Geographical Indications (GI) tag in 2018. The GI tag is specifically attributable to the artwork's place of origin (West Bengal, Pingla, Naya village), and the materials and techniques used (Hand painted, using organic pigments on handmade paper.) The artist is among the select practitioners who are recipients of the GI certificate, which conveys an assurance of quality and distinctiveness.
