About the Item

Somnath Hore - Untitled AP - 11/34, Etching on Paper 11 x 10.5 inches, 1985 (Unfamed & Delivered) Figurative work by Master Sculptor and Painter Somenath Hore. A gorgeous subtle rendition of a reclining woman, masterfully executed by the Master Indian Artist. Recipient of honors and awards like Padma Bhushan by the Govt of India; a cerebral artist, Somenath Hore was a sought-after artist during his lifetime as well as pot his death. Provenance : Collected directly from the artist's family and documented and authenticated by Chandana Hore, His daughter . Style : Somnath Hore ( 1921 - 2006 ) was a Bengali sculptor and printmaker. His sketches, sculptures and prints were a reaction to major historical crises and events of 20th century Bengal, such as the Bengal Famine of 1943 and the Tebhaga movement. The anguished human form has widely been reflected in Hore's figuration. The visual appeal of his work is increased by rough surfaces, slits, holes and exposed channels.
