コレクション: アバニンドラナート・タゴール

Abanindranath Tagore (1871–1951) was a pioneering Indian artist and writer, widely regarded as the father of modern Indian art. He founded the Bengal School of Art, which sought to revive traditional Indian artistic styles and challenge the dominance of Western techniques. His works often drew inspiration from Indian mythology, literature, and history, blending elements of Mughal and Rajput art with a modern sensibility. Notable paintings like Bharat Mata and The Passing of Shah Jahan showcase his unique ability to convey cultural identity and spiritual depth. Abanindranath’s contributions to Indian art were instrumental in shaping a distinctly Indian modernist aesthetic, making him a key figure in India’s cultural renaissance.
