Original hand-painted acupuncture chart illustrating the human body from the mid-20th century. The artwork depicts a full back view with detailed acupuncture meridian points, skeletal outlines, and labeled body regions. Each line and dot is individually applied in red, blue, and black ink, showing fine brush control and anatomical accuracy. This chart reflects the early Indian medical illustration tradition used in Ayurvedic and acupuncture institutes. The piece is attributed to the Indian artist Parihar, whose hand-painted medical charts are recognized for their meticulous execution and scientific precision. It retains its original wooden frame with two metal hanging hooks on the top edge. A distinctive educational and decorative piece for collectors of vintage medical art and alternative healing history.
