Wasli, also referred to as wasli paper, is a type of handmade paper used specifically for painting miniatures. It was devised in India, in the 10th century, and figures widely in Mughal-era painting. Wasli can be produced to varying thickness and its uses range from classical/traditional painting methods with opaque water colors to building structures of various kinds. Miniature Painting is a term used for making opaque/translucent water color paintings/illustrations on a small scale inspired from Persian or Pahari miniature schools and Wasli is used as a canvas for making miniatures.

  • Wasli, auch als Wasli-Papier ist eine spezielles, handgefertigtes Papier für die Malerei von Miniaturen. Es wurde im 10. Jahrhundert in Indien entwickelt. Es wird aus mehreren Lagen Papier und einer speziellen, mit Kupfersulfat oder Kaliumalaun gemischten Stärkepaste (Nasha) laminiert. Das Papier wird dann mit der Hand, entweder mit glattem Glas oder einer Muschel poliert, bis es glänzend und glatt ist und nur noch ein minimales wahrnehmbares Korn hat. (de)

  • Wasli, auch als Wasli-Papier ist eine spezielles, handgefertigtes Papier für die Malerei von Miniaturen. Es wurde im 10. Jahrhundert in Indien entwickelt. Es wird aus mehreren Lagen Papier und einer speziellen, mit Kupfersulfat oder Kaliumalaun gemischten Stärkepaste (Nasha) laminiert. Das Papier wird dann mit der Hand, entweder mit glattem Glas oder einer Muschel poliert, bis es glänzend und glatt ist und nur noch ein minimales wahrnehmbares Korn hat. Neueste Anwendungen von Wasli reichen von der klassischen/traditionellen Malerei mit Deckfarben an Bauwerken bis zu Miniaturmalereien. Das Wort Wasli kam aus dem persischen Wort Vasl, was Union bedeutet (zusammenkommen, eins sein). Wasli ist ein säurefreies Papier und hat archivalische Qualitäten. Insekten können das Papier nicht fressen, weil Kupfersulfat (Neela Thootha) bei der Herstellung verwendet wird. (de)
  • Wasli, also referred to as wasli paper, is a type of handmade paper used specifically for painting miniatures. It was devised in India, in the 10th century, and figures widely in Mughal-era painting. Wasli can be produced to varying thickness and its uses range from classical/traditional painting methods with opaque water colors to building structures of various kinds. Miniature Painting is a term used for making opaque/translucent water color paintings/illustrations on a small scale inspired from Persian or Pahari miniature schools and Wasli is used as a canvas for making miniatures. The term derives from a Persian word Vasl which means union or coming together, oneness, etc. Wasli is an acid-free paper and it has archival qualities. Paper-eating insects cannot eat it because of a poison copper sulphate (Neela Thootha) used its preparation. The glue typically used to paste sheets together is also acid-free, being made out of cooking flour. To use it for miniature paintings this layered paper is burnished with either smooth glass or a sea shell. This way the paper is shiny and smooth and has minimal perceptible grain. (en)
