New Year in colors: from fine arts to romance

Published: 13 April 2026, 09:31 PM

New Year begins tomorrow Tuesday, 1433. Around the Bengali New Year, colors, traditions and the language of protest spread across the capital. The preparations for the art procession, the arrangement of Chayanot at Ramna Batmule, the busyness of Doel Chatwar—all in all, the atmosphere of the festival seems to be captured in every frame. Paintings, masks, symbolic motifs and people’s spontaneous participation are the reflection of Bengali culture, history and time. These pictures from Monday afternoon, April 13, tell the story of that preparation and anticipation.
