Naqashi, is a form of painting of nature, on walls and buildings. This art has been practiced in Pakistan, Iran, Turkey and Central Asia for 100s of years. Wazir Khan mosque in Lahore is a prime example of this art. Floral patterns can be seen on the walls of the mosque and have withstood the ravages of time. Regretfully, naqashi is losing its significance in Pakistan and there are not that many practitioners left of this art form.
