The product featured here is that of a contemporary painting on velvet cloth. Hand-painting on velvet cloth is known to be a very complicated art, difficult to master and very laborious to work on as well.
This painting depicts a withered old villager smoking his quaint old pipe. This work of art pays great attention to detail - each and every wrinkle on the elderly man's face is highlighted with a clever play of colors. There is a look of extreme tiredness on the old villager's face. His turban is tied tightly round his head, thus bringing his whole face and flowing, silvery beard more sharply into focus. He breathes in deeply and lets out smoke from his mouth, enjoying every puff from his pipe.
