Being A Woman Leather Tote

A soft and supple leather handbag with hand-painted art by Ranjeet Jha of Bihar, India.    He learned the art of Madhubani painting, represented in the Asian Art Museum collection in pieces such as this painting of a Holi celebration,  from his mother beginning at the age of 7.  Ranjeet loves to include the traditional motif of the Tree of Life in his artwork – seen here intertwined with the figure of a woman, both rooted in the earth yet reaching for the sky.
