Anukul Charan Munshi or simply Anukul Munshi was a legendary Indian artist who was born to Banwari Charan Munshi, one of the estate holders of Chowgachhi zamindar family (now in Bangladesh). Munshi was the Father of artist Annada Munshi and artist Manu Munshi.[1][2]

The Mother of Pearl artistry in India[edit | edit source]

  • Maharaja of Jodhpur[2]
  • Radha-Krishna[2]

1. Received gold medal from British Raj for his exhibition based on Mother of Pearl artistry in the British empire exhibition in 1924.[3]

2. Received accommodation to permanently live in Rome as a honour from the then Government of Italy.[3]
