South Indian Peepal Skeleton Leaf Art Madonna & Child Hand Painted 6.5" Unframed

Own a piece of one of India's oldest artistic traditions with this Hand-Painted Peepal Leaf Madonna and Child. This unique folk art, native to South India, involves a painstaking process where the leaf is dried and treated until only its intricate, thread-like vein structure remains.

The delicate "skeleton" of the leaf serves as a natural canvas, providing a texture and depth that no paper can replicate. The vibrant pigments used to depict the Madonna and Child stand out beautifully against the included black mounting, which highlights the leaf's organic lace-like pattern.
