Below the tree is another motif commonly used by the tribal artists.

The Sauras are among the oldest tribes of India, going back to the times of the Ramayana and Mahabharata epics.
They decorate the walls of their homes with paintings on religious and ceremonial themes and adorn them with motifs of flowers, birds, trees and numerous geometrical shapes and designs. This art-form is mostly found in the Rayagada, Gajapati and Koraput districts of Orissa. Height: 20.4 cms (8'')
