Pichwai paintings is an art form of traditional painting which portrays Hindu god Shreenathji (Lord Krishna). Pichwai art isn’t just a style—it’s a spiritual experience painted in rich tradition and intricate beauty. At [www.hummingcrafts.com], we’ve captured this centuries-old Rajasthani art form in a way that’s both accessible and inspiring through our beautifully curated Pichwai Art Box. Originating over 400 years ago in the temple town of Nathdwara, Rajasthan, Pichwai art was traditionally created as a devotional backdrop behind the idol of Lord Krishna, especially in his form as Shreenathji.
What makes Pichwai art so special?
These large, elaborate cloth paintings were originally created as backdrops behind the deity Shreenathji—a child-like incarnation of Lord Krishna. Each painting reflects a story from Krishna’s life, intricately composed using nature, animals, and divine symbolism.
You’ll often find:
• Lotus flowers – A symbol of purity, grace and transcendence.
• Cows – Symbolizing Krishna’s love as a cowherd
• Peacocks and parrots – Adding a burst of life and color
• Festive motifs –Celebrations that honored Lord Krishna like Janmashtami or Sharad Purnima

Modern day production
Today, Pichwai art is very popular and is often bought by people from around the world. It has become one of the main art forms exported from Nathdwara.
Many of the artists reside in unique neighborhoods known as Chitron ki Gali (the Lane of Art) and Chitra Karon ka Mohalla (the Artists’ Quarter).They are a close group of people who often work together on each painting. One artist might draw the outline, another fills in the colors, and a master artist check and finishes the work.
Now, many modern artists and designers are also helping to share Pichwai art with more people through exhibitions, online platforms, and creative projects.
In recent years, more artists and designers have started promoting Pichwai art—not just in India, but internationally. Through exhibitions, social media, and collaborations, this traditional art is reaching a new generation of art lovers.
