M.F.HUSAIN (1915 - 2011) HORSE PAINTING – MAQBOOL FIDA HUSAIN WATER COLOUR ON PAPER

THIS PAINTING BY LEGENDARY INDIAN MODERNIST MAQBOOL FIDA HUSAIN FEATURES HIS ICONIC THEME OF THE HORSE, SYMBOLIZING POWER, GRACE, AND FREEDOM. RENDERED IN BOLD, EXPRESSIVE BRUSHSTROKES AND MINIMAL DETAIL, THE HORSE APPEARS FRAGMENTED YET DYNAMIC, A HALLMARK OF HUSAIN’S STYLE. THE MUTED MONOCHROMATIC PALETTE IS ACCENTUATED BY A SURREAL MOON AND AN OUTSTRETCHED HAND, ADDING A LAYER OF SYMBOLISM. THE WORK EMBODIES HUSAIN’S ABILITY TO MERGE TRADITIONAL INDIAN SYMBOLS WITH A MODERNIST VISUAL LANGUAGE.

THESE WORKS ARE HIGHLY SOUGHT AFTER, MUCH LIKE THOSE BY RENOWNED ARTISTS SUCH AS M.F. HUSAIN, S.H. RAZA, F.N. SOUZA, AKBAR PADAMSEE, HEMENDRANATH MAZUMDAR, RAM KUMAR, JAMINI ROY, B. PRABHA, TYEB MEHTA, AND MANY OTHERS. THEY ARE OFTEN SOLD BY AUCTIONEERS TO COLLECTORS AROUND THE GLOBE
