The Indian Water Carrier
Painting of Indian Water Carrier, a beautiful girl in a colourful sari in Rajasthan, by Surrey artist Stanley Port
The Indian Water Carrier Original Painting by Stanley Port
Acrylic on canvas 50 x 40 cm

The inspiration for this painting was an Indian peasant girl dressed in a colourful sari in Rajasthan, observed when travelling to the desert city of Jaisalmer. The sari is the traditonal dress of women in India, consisting of a very long piece of cloth swathed around the body. Indian girls, such as this, traditionally can carry heavy objects on their head, obviously an aid to good deportment!
