About the piece
Painted in 1913 by Abanindranath Tagore, this seminal work of the Bengal School uses a rich, atmospheric red background to isolate the form of a collapsing camel. The tempera on paper piece serves as a powerful allegory for toil and exhaustion, captured through delicate lines and a bold, modern palette.
