About Untitled (Figure on Rickshaw)
"Untitled (Figure on Rickshaw)" by the famous Indian Modernist Tyeb Mehta, is one of the most expensive Indian paintings which was sold at Rs 14,40,00,000 by Christies in 2011. In this painting, the rickshaw is not a simple means of transport but a sign of bondage, and the trapped rickshaw-puller who is, as Mehta described it, “caged in a vehicle that has become an aching extension of his body.” Confronted by the isolated napping protagonist, the onlooker enters the realm of this painting cautiously; despite the predicaments and sufferings of the rickshawpuller, the moment captured here is that of respite. As a metaphorical stage for the dramatisation of modern man's sociological and psychological concerns, Mehta's iconic Rickshaw series underscores the anonymity and isolation of the common labourers.About the Art Prints
