Period Kalighat Painting of a Babu Visiting a Nautch Girl: This rare Kalighat painting depicts a Babu, or gentleman, visiting a nautch girl, offering a glimpse into the social life of colonial-era Bengal. Created by artists near Calcutta’s renowned Kalighat Temple, these paintings were initially sold to visitors and later developed into a significant artistic movement, influencing artists like Jamini Roy. Emerging during the 19th-century British colonial period, Kalighat paintings capture both mythological and everyday scenes, reflecting the social and cultural changes of the time. The bold composition and minimal background in this artwork draw attention to the figures, creating a striking portrayal of life in that era.

Sunil Das (Indian, 1939-2015): Untitled (sketch of a Bull) charcoal on paper 90x58. Sunil Das was an expressionist Indian artist, born in Calcutta in 1939. He joined the Government College of Art & Craft, in Kolkata, in 1955, before winning the French Government Scholarship to study at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris. During this period, he had the chance to travel to Spain, where he spent a couple of months and developed his passion for horses and bulls. Hardly ever painting in loud or warm colours, Sunil Das uses soft brown, mauve and white in the background to bring out the drama of life. Das is the only Indian artist to have won a National Award (the Shiromani Kala Puraskar) while still an undergraduate at the Government College of Art and Craft, Kolkata. Besides having been featured in several exhibitions, his works are also a part of the collections of renowned museums such as the National Gallery of Modern Art, New Delhi, the Glenbarra Art Museum, Japan, and the Ludwig Museum, Germany.
