Satellite night lights · city lights seen from orbit · 10,588 lit cells of about 500 m, each one a dot

रातको नेपाल means Nepal at night in Nepali. It stands under the English name on the print, above a line that says what you are looking at: satellite night lights.

Night lights from NASA Earth Observatory (Suomi NPP VIIRS, 2016); Nepal's 2020 border from the Government of Nepal's map via Open Data Nepal, CC BY 4.0. As credited on the print.

It is not a navigation map.

Original design by Jhilke Studio.

About this print

Nepal at night, as a satellite sees it.

Each of the 10,588 dots is one lit cell of about 500 m in a satellite image of night lights.

Brighter cells are larger and warmer in colour.

Cells below a set brightness are left out, so the dots gather where the towns are.

रातको नेपाल means Nepal at night in Nepali and sits under the English name.

Gold and saffron dots on deep ink, with a thin cream border line.

Manufacturer: Jhilke Studio, Rua António Aleixo 15, 3E, 2810-020 Almada, Portugal, support@jhilkestudio.com

Questions, answered

When will my order arrive?
Every print is made to order. Most orders arrive within 10 working days. A few places take longer: up to 15 working days to Cyprus, Malta and Ireland. Your product page shows the expected dates for your country, updated every night. Delivery is €5,95, and free from €40.

Nothing waits in a warehouse. Your print is made after you order, then posted, so it takes 3 to 6 working days to Austria.

Do frames come included?
The Fine Art Matte Print is sent unframed and fits a standard frame from any shop. Prefer to hang it straight away? Choose the Wood-Framed Fine Art Print or the Canvas Print and it arrives ready to hang.
How accurate are the colours?
A little variation between a bright screen and paper is normal. Our matte prints are on 200 gsm paper, and we proof every design.

Send us a photo of the damage within 30 days of delivery and we replace the print or refund you in full. Returns are free for 30 days.

Can I return it?

Is checkout secure?
Payments are encrypted and processed through Shopify's secure checkout. Card and the local payment methods for your country show at checkout.
What are the Naksha maps drawn from?
Every Naksha print is built from open data. Elevation is NASA SRTM, the rivers come from HydroRIVERS, the night lights from NASA's Suomi NPP satellite (2016), and the border is Nepal's official 2020 map from Open Data Nepal. Each print names its data and credits at the foot of the sheet.
What are the three Naksha formats, and how does each arrive?
The Fine Art Matte Print is the print alone on 200 gsm matte paper, unframed, and ships in a flat or triangular box. The Wood-Framed Fine Art Print comes mounted in a wooden frame with a plexiglass front, ready to hang: black wood on the Ink, Terracotta and Nepal at Night prints, natural wood on the Paper ones. The Canvas Print is stretched over a slim wooden frame with the background colour running round the sides, and arrives ready to hang in one piece.

What sizes do Naksha prints come in?
Every design comes in three sizes: Small 30 × 40 cm, Medium 50 × 70 cm and Large 70 × 100 cm. Eight Peaks hangs portrait; the other designs are landscape. Naksha prints start at €29,95 for a Small Fine Art Matte Print.

Hi, I’m Amrit

I moved from Nepal to Europe and started Jhilke Studio to make the prints I wanted on my own walls. Every design starts from real data or a real line of Nepali or Sanskrit. If I can’t tell you where it came from, it doesn’t go on sale.
