Baluchari Weaving

The primitive techniques of preserving images are being overlooked, but there are art forms like Baluchari weaving which have kept the admirers swooning upon the meticulously planned arrangement of warp and wefts, depicting scenes from religious epics and courtly ceremonies as patterns on a piece of fabric. The Baluchari sarees of Bishnupur exude the motivation which propelled the artisans of Baluchar centuries ago to tell tales through their handwoven silk sarees.
