Sohrai Tribal Wall Art – Hand-Painted Wildlife Heritage

Celebrate the spirit of the animal kingdom with this authentic Sohrai Painting, a traditional art form from the tribal heartlands of Jharkhand, India. Known as a "matriarchal art," Sohrai is historically painted by women on the walls of their homes to welcome the harvest and honor cattle.

This specific composition features a vibrant array of forest wildlife—including the elephant, deer, and peacock—intertwined with traditional floral vines. Each figure is rendered in the characteristic "Matka" style, utilizing bold outlines and earthy fills that carry centuries of storytelling.
