Brass Gold — 9 museum-grade prints in this palette. Kerala's Malabar coast was the hinge of the global spice trade for two millennia — black pepper, cardamom and cinnamon drew Roman, Arab, Chinese and later European ships to Kochi, Kozhikode and Kollam. This print sets that everyday merchant inside bhitti chitra, Kerala's temple-mural tradition that flourished roughly from the 16th to 19th century and is still painted today: flat panchavarna pigments (red, yellow, green, black, white over an ochre ground), a bold lamp-black outline, and the school's elongated lotus-shaped eyes.
