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.
