THE WORKSHOP

Pigment ground by hand, gold burnished with stone

Our painters work in families around Patan and Boudhanath, following proportions fixed centuries ago. They set their own prices and are paid in full before a canvas leaves Nepal — which is the only reason work of this quality still exists.
