About the piece
Originating from late 19th-century Calcutta, this Kalighat painting captures the rhythmic spirit of Indian folk art. The composition features a woman in a patterned red sari playing a stringed instrument, rendered with the sweeping brushstrokes and high-contrast colors typical of the school. The piece balances a sense of movement with the formal elegance of the figure's pose.
