M D Natesan 1917 Watercolours on Paper x 2 Untitled (girl removing thorn from foot) Image Size: 33.5 x 17.7 cm Frame Size: 44 x 33 cm Untitled (girl with flower blue wash) Image Size: 27.5 x 17.6 cm Framed Size: 44 x 33 cm Two beautifully painted early Bengal School watercolours from Calcutta, One shows a girl removing a thorn from her foot, possibly a reference to a scene from Shakuntala, one of the Indian epics and portrayed by artists such as Abanindranath Tagore and Ravi Varma. The second is beautifully delicate image of a woman looking to the distance, ethereal and displaying all the best attributes of wash paintings from this early Bengal school period.
