A male woodblock printer prints with woodblocks by Jain&Kriz on cotton fabric in the printing workshop in Bagru, Jaipur district, Rajasthan, India on 15 March 2019. Each pattern is the result of precise registration of several woodblocks over each other. Printing on fabrics is an Indian specialty, wood block printing is already used for hundreds of years. Bagru is famous for printing exclusively with natural colors. The main experts are members of the Chhipa community. (Chhi - dye, pa - let something dry in the sun). Locals estimate that there are about 200 printing workshops in and around Bagru, which dye fabrics using mud paste, natural rubber and wheat flakes. Organic basic colors are made of natural substances such as tamarind, alum, indigo and even pomegranate and other fruits and vegetables. (Photo by Krystof Kriz/NurPhoto)
