UNITED KINGDOM---Using time-honoured materials, Olivia Fraser, a Scottish Catholic, has mastered the craft of Hindu miniature. Sheets of jute produced in Sanganer are prized by miniaturists such as Olivia Fraser, who paste them together in their workshops to create the heftier substance known as wasli. Jute is pulped into paper in Sanganer, just outside the Rajasthani capital of Jaipur. [link]
