Immerse yourself in the delicate artistry of Goan Azulejos with our latest cartoon! An artist, engrossed in creating a masterpiece, paints history one stroke at a time!
These blue and white Azulejos tiles, a legacy from the Portuguese era, narrate a tale of rich Goan history. With origins dating back to the 15th century, these tiles have become synonymous with Goa’s vibrant architectural landscape. Churches, houses, shops, or nameplates – Azulejos find their home everywhere!
Through painstaking craftsmanship, these tiles are hand-painted with a unique fusion of tradition and creativity. The distinctive blue used in the tiles – ‘azul’ in Portuguese – paints Goa’s skies and seas onto our walls, creating a delightful canvas of memories.
