Papier mâche

"The map of Srinagar is my humble attempt at highlighting the breathtaking landscape", Maqbool Jan said about his famous cloth map painting. The 56-year-old started working on the map a year ago when Basit Zargar, a photojournalist, posted pictures of the papier mâche cloth piece. “We need to spread awareness about the declining art across India and social media could be a start”, Maqbool voiced about his work.
