^{Its perhaps the most ancient art form. From the iron age and onwards its always been put in to use all the time. It all started with making hunting tools and other utility items and carried on forever till now. The only thing remained common in it was the imagination and artistic touch in all the items manufactured using the simple process of heating up the iron and hammering it to give it a final desired shape. The one art work depicted here looks simple but requires an abnormal kinds of effort and time to get the Iron piece come out in the shape of unique boat with as many as 9 boatmen’s putting efforts to sail.}

^{The boats forward head has been designed in the shape of a dear and the same goes with tail of the boat as well. These special looking boats are generally used in India during certain cultural festivals where boat race sometime is integral part of the festival.

^{The detailing in this art piece is worth noting, each and every boatman have been designed well with emotions and their postures are unique. Looks like a perfect example of the team work. All the boatmen’s are looking at one direction except the cheerleader cum captain who is looking at the other direction towards every other boatman’s and trying to ensure that the synergy and team work ensures to get the victory. The boatmen’s are made of solid iron piece hammered time and again to give it’s the final shape and the same is with the boat.
