Description
Bijan Choudhury (1931 - 2012)
Oil on Canvas
65 x 43 Inches
Signed Lower Left
"Bijon Chaudhury was a modernist painter renowned for his exploration of themes like resilience labor and human connection. Born in Faridpur Bengal and educated at the Government College of Art and Craft Calcutta Chaudhury emerged as a key figure in the Indian art scene. He was part of the Calcutta Painters group which sought to create a modernist movement rooted in Indian culture. His works celebrated for their sculptural figures and dynamic lines blend Indian classical and folk traditions with Western modernist influences. This piece portrays a seated man with a musical instrument and a woman on a chair depicted in muted brown and earthy tones. The elongated rounded limbs of the man and the poised posture of the woman create an intimate connection between the figures. Chaudhury’s use of minimal background and bold sculptural forms heightens the emotional depth of the scene blending tradition and modernity in a timeless narrative"
