Dipen Bose Paintings

Indian, 1921-1964

Dipen Bose was born in Kolkata, West Bengal. He is a self-taught artist with no academic training in art. His grandfather, Nagendra Bose, inspired him to start painting. Initially, he learnt drawing and painting at Belgachia Pannalalshil Vidyamandir, presently called Manohar Academy, Kolkata. He learnt the technique of oil painting from artist Debi Prasad Roychowdhury. Bose started painting in 1947, after giving up his job at Central Excise Service in Kolkata. His association with the Indian Institute of Art and Industry and Indian Society of Oriental Art played a vital role in his life. He was close to Indra Dugar. Bose was also associated with Art in Industry and Rachana till 1952. These associations inspired him towards traditional Indian Art, French Impressionism and Chinese Art. In 1953 one of his paintings was presented to the President of the Federal Republic of Germany by the government of India. Bose has also written articles on art in newspapers and journals.

Antique Swedish Oil Canvas Painting Romantic Interior Family Scene Monkey 1883

Located in Portland, OR

A fine & large antique oil on canvas painting by Bengt Nordenberg (1822-1902), Sweden, dated 1883. Nordenberg is recognized as one of Sweden's most celebrated 19th century artists, his work epitomizes Swedish Romanticism and this painting is a wonderful representation of that style. The painting depicts an interior scene of a mother holding an infant in front of an open heath, with a fire burning in the grate, above the fire there are racks of meat hanging and above that are hams hanging. The infant has evidently just woken from a nap and his cradle sits next to his mother's chair, his brother sitting on the floor with his monkey & the carrying case he transports the animal to beg for money, the monkey humorously sits with his begging plate outstretched to the boy's mother, much to her consternation! The painting is signed and dated lower left, it is in very good condition and is housed in the original gilded composition and limewood frame, Nordenberg's record for a painting at auction is over $91,500, this is a fine example of the artist's work and is ready to hang on your wall. Bloomsbury Fine Art & Antiques ship globally, very well packed & insured to ensure safe delivery. Bengt Nordenberg (1822-1902) was a master of Swedish Romanticism.
