Jamini Roy - Santhal Wood Carver - Art Prints
299 Rs
Jamini Roy is an Indian painter, honored with the State award of Padma Bhushan. Roy's rejection of the then modern style of painting and his foray into the realm of Bengali folk paintings marked a new beginning in the history of Indian modern art.
Jamini Rai captured the qualities that are a part of the native folk painting and recombined them with those of his own. He fused the minimal brush strokes of the Kalighat style with elements of tribal art from Bengal.

About Jamini Roy Santhal Wood Carver
"Santhal Wood Carver" by Shri Jamini Roy is one of his most famous work. Roy received his Diploma in Fine Art in 1908. But he soon realised that he needed to draw inspiration, not from Western traditions, but from his own culture, and so he looked to the living folk and tribal art for inspiration. He was most influenced by the Kalighat Pat (Kalighat painting), which was a style of art with bold sweeping brush-strokes. About the Art Prints
