About the Item

Suhas Roy - Christ - 20 x 16 inches ( Unframed Size ) Mixed Media on Imported Paper , 2005 ( Framed & Door Delivered ) Suhas Roy depicted the face of Jesus portraying pain and agony. Incredulous as they appear, the pair of eyes convey a sense of gloom and despair which the artist has captured with an exquisitely controlled juxtaposition of sepia, brown, Indian red and black. Red arrows ponting towards Jesus is symbolic of the pain and the torture he went through. Suhas Roy's Christ is now a part of the prestigious collections of the Vatican City, a rare honour for any artist. The artist painted his first Christ sometime in the 1970s, and has since portrayed Jesus innumerable times, in pencil, pastel and oil. Last year, on the occasion of the exposition of St Francis Xavier in Goa, held once every 10 years, he did a painting of Jesus for a show titled 'Bridging the Gaps ... Through the Gospel'. Style : He is one of the biggest and the most enduring names in the genre of Indian modern art. Often dubbed the father of female figurative forms. Radha Series and the Christ Series in soft pastel on paper and intense Oil on canvas paintings .Consequently, his recent body of works, "Drops of Silence", executed in oil, pastels and pen-and-ink etchings on backdrops in watercolours, are all studies of "mysterious slightly surreal nude women floating in a void".
