この絵画について
The scene is painted on a postcard. The landscape depicts a view of Kurseong (near Darjeeling) as seen from the artist. There are rocks and trees, painted in grey, green and brown tones. The watercolour is executed in a wash technique which gives an atmosphere of space and timelessness. The postcard was sent by the artist to Roop Krishna Esq. The message on the reverse reads: "My dear Rup, we are in the hills. Thank you for your PC. Accept our blessings. Give my namaskar to your father." Postmark dated 10th October 1924.

Abanindranath Tagore (1871-1951) was the pioneer and leading exponent of the Bengal School of Art. In his paintings, he sought to counter the influence of Western art as taught in art schools under the British Raj, by modernizing indigenous Moghul and Rajput traditions. His work became so influential that it was eventually accepted and regarded as a national Indian style. Later, studying Japanese art under Japanese artists, Taikoan and Hilsida, Abanindranath assimilated Far Eastern techniques such as the wash into his work.
