TRIBAL CULTURE IN PAPER WORK
Size: 41.5 x 29.3 cm (16.3 x 11.5 inches)

Signed in Devnagari (lower right).

This painting is a classic example of Gond art, a traditional tribal art form from the Gondi people of central India, primarily Madhya Pradesh. The artwork depicts a dynamic encounter between a tiger and a deer, a common theme symbolizing the raw, untamed beauty and predator-prey balance of the jungle. The figures are not painted in solid blocks but are filled with intricate "signature patterns" of fine lines, dots, and dashes. These patterns give the still image a sense of movement and energy.

This work will be shipped unframed.
