关于这幅画

The scene is painted on a postcard. The landscape is depicted in grey-blue tones with mountains in the background and trees in the foreground. The watercolour is executed in a wash technique which makes the mountain and tree forms fairly indistinct but gives the painting an atmosphere of space and timelessness. The postcard was sent by the artist to Roop Krishna Esq at The India Society of Art, Room 12, Samavaya Mansion, Hoss St. Caluctta. Postmark dated 27 November 1920

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.
