The scroll painters and potters came to Kalighat and settled there because this was a time when the city was expanding as a commercial and administrative centre. Colonial offices were coming up, new buildings and roads were being constructed, markets were being set up.
The scroll painters and potters too came came and settled in the city in the hope of new patrons and new buyers of their art. They began to paint new themes because values, tastes, social norms and customs were undergoing fast changes after the 1840s.
