by Close on the heels of the Anokhi museum story, here is a photoessay I had done for Marwar magazine on traditional Rajasthani prints and the hand block printing process – these images are from Sanganer and the Anokhi factory, both near Jaipur. The next time, will visit Bagru village too, to complete the story in my head.
For now – Of Prints And Paisley
Loved the photo essay! Beautiful pics. The entire process of block printing looks so enchanting! To top it all, the dyes are entirely natural and chemical-free. It is a pity that these prints are fast becoming extinct. 🙁
