About Portrait Of Ghalib (From DiwaneGhalib MuraqqaeChughtai) Abdur Chugtai Painting
Chugtai’s stunning use of space and perspective in this work, in relation to the central form,is praiseworthy. Not unlike the great Oriental masters of scroll-painting, he commands the vertical space with graceful swooping lines that in turn defines the contour of the figure with dexterity. The color palette is soothing and radiant without being gaudy. He preferred to work on a particular range of papers made in Germany and England incorporating a uniquely styled method of painting. Chughtai's talent in draughtsmanship, also owing to his tutelage at the local mosque under his uncle (a calligraphy artist), combined with his expertise in European drawing enabled him to create works with meticulous precision and élan as is evident from the painting illustrated here - free flowing lines, selection of colours with sensibility and the trademark romantic theme. His works have a unique lyrical quality and were inspired from the poems of either Rumi, Omar Khayyam , Saadi or Ghalib. About the Framed Prints
