More Info

This lithograph, titled Paanwali and published by Hemchander Bhargava, depicts a woman engaged in the traditional art of preparing and selling paan (betel leaves). Dressed in a vibrant yellow saree and adorned with traditional jewelry, she is seated in an organized setting, surrounded by essentials of her trade.

The artwork intricately captures details such as a basket of fresh betel leaves, a pot, condiments, and beautifully arranged paan ready for customers. A vintage clock and elegant curtains in the background add a nostalgic charm, highlighting a practice deeply rooted in Indian culture and tradition.
