Description
This is a framed piece of 2-D art in brass. This style is unique to tribes of the Indian North-East. The scene in this piece depicts a typical fishing village where the entire village depends on fishing from the sea. Among fishing communities, fishing is both a livelihood and a cause of joy and sorrow. This spun brass scene depicts that mixture true of all life.
This is a Live Event Item.
