The wide range of printed and embroidered
textiles at the Museum is a tribute to the artiste of womenfolk
whose gentle hands have created fascinating patterns and designs
expressing their dreams and aspirations. Their inborn talent
is evident in the striking designs with richly ornamented
motifs of bird,animals etc. Breathtaking Paithanis and Chandrakala
from Maharashtra, gorgeous Parsi garos, rich Banarasi weaves,
colourful Rabari garments from Kutch and Gujarat, ‘Kantha’
creations… the gallery of textiles preserves all these traditional
Indian styles and motifs for posterity.
