Description:

Here is an Oleograph print of Guru Nanek by an Indian artist Narottam Narayan. He was especially famous for his images of  Krishna, which were popular throughout North India and were even more influential than the works of Ravi Varma.

Several of his paintings of Krishna, Lakshmi, Saraswati, Ganesha, Shiva were published as posters by S. S. Brijbasi, a firm based in Karachi in pre-independence India (from 1918 until Partition), using  Chromolithography and printed in Germany. This particular print of Bawa Guru Nanak was printed in Brijbasi  fine art offset works Mathura, India, post independence.

What is Oleography?

The Greek word litho means 'stone' and graphein means 'to write' so Lithography can be defined as 'stone printing'. The printing plate originally used were porous stones. The priting portion of the stone plate was treated to absorb ink and the nonprinting area was treated to repel ink. Depending on the number of colours present, an oleograph could take months to produce by very skilled workers.
