About the painting
Jamini Roy (1887-1972) was one of the most important artists of the modern period in India, drawing on the popular and folk traditions of rural Bengal for his inspiration. This work depicts the figure of a highly stylised goddess (possibly Lakshmi) with four outstretched arms. The body is formed from two inverted triangles drawn in bold black strokes and is insect-like. This is one of a series of similar works where the artist has used lamp-black outline taken from the bottom of a kettle with grey wash.
