Description

Jamini Roy (Indian, 1887-1972) Untitled (Durga and Ganesha)The Collection of Dr. Sandran WaranJamini Roy (Indian, 1887-1972)Untitled (Durga and Ganesha) signed lower right, executed circa 1960stempera on card, framed44 x 54.5cm (17 5/16 x 21 7/16in).ProvenanceAcquired from Plate Loft Gallery, Sri Lanka in 2005.Roy studied at the Government College of Art, Kolkata and obtained his Diploma in Fine Art in 1908. He learnt how to paint in the prevailing academic tradition, drawing classical nudes, but realised that he ought to derive his inspiration from Bengali culture, and not from Western traditions. He found his inspiration in folk and tribal art which emphasised simplicity and bold sweeping brushstrokes. His goals were to give Indian art its own identity, to capture the essence embodied in the life of the folk people and to make art accessible to a wider selection of people. The four Jamini's in this auction are quintessential examples of the style and themes he came to be known for. In 'Durga and Ganesha' and 'Krishna and Cows,' he depicts mythological beings, in an almost child-like style, whilst in 'Three Women' and 'Mother and Child' for example, he portrays traditional women without artificial beauty, in complete contrast to the academic tradition of earlier works, including those of Raja Ravi Verma. The economy of colour, coupled with the bold style, renders subtle yet powerful emotions. His works are part of the collections of the Victoria and Albert Museum, London and the National Gallery of Modern Art, Delhi. In 1954, he was the recipient of the Padma Bhushan, the third highest civilian award.For a similar work sold at Sotheby's, see Indian Art, 22nd March 2007, lot 5.
