LOT NOTES
Badri Nayan was a well-known Indian author, pedagogue, self-taught artist and illustrator best known for his mosaics, ceramic tile paintings, and, later, watercolors. Following his first solo exhibition of paintings at the Hyderabad Art Society in 1954, Nayan held over fifty solo exhibitions over the course of his career. He has illustrated books such as "The Ramayana" (1988), "The Mahabharata" (1985), "In Worship of Shiva" (1986), and "Indian Mythical Heroines" (1977), as well as illustrated and authored several of his own. Much of the artist`s oeuvre is informed by traditional Indian art, folklore, and mythology, especially Indian miniature painting. While still lives are an uncommon subject matter for Nayan, the summery color palette and the stylised hatching of the table, vases, and drapery instantly highlight key features of the artist`s style.
