Kalamkari is an ancient style hand painted or block printed art form done on cotton or silk textiles with the help of tamarind twigs as pen using natural dyes; originated in Andhra Pradesh having distinctive styles of intricate detailed patterns having characteristic uniform off white colors. This distinctive painting of Goddess Lakshmi depicts her as sitting on a richly carved elephant, as the name itself says, Gajalakshmi; garbed in a royal dhoti with extensive floral motifs and a beautiful semi-circular fan that it forms beneath her lalitasana posture.
The Chaturbhuja holds two lotuses in her rear hands while the former ones are placed in a gesture of granting boon and fearlessness. Superbly ornamented in beauteous jewels with a multi-layered haloed crown veiled by awe-struck zarkans and a peacock feather at the top; framed in floral borders in antique colors and ethnic patterns with her long hairs flowing downwards, this painting depicts true values of picturesque.
