Although typically recognised for his brightly coloured, exuberant paintings of Indian subjects, mythologies, and folk traditions, Jamini Roy also created a body of relatively minimalist works in black and white. Using natural pigments-lime and lamp black in the case of his monochrome works-he painted his characteristic subjects stripped of ornamentation and saturation, floating against subtly graded backgrounds. This is a rare opportunity to see a collection of these paintings together in one place.
