G D Paulraj - To The Bazaar

Another find by my friend Kashinath, this one appeals to me in looks fund with the little boy being carried on his father's shoulders.

It is a nice colourful watercolour, with a selection of big trees which it is clear he must have enjoyed painting them.

G D Paulraj - Stormy Day

Another Paulraj painting sent to me by my friend Kashinath.  It is a really stormy day.  I am now wondering if I have posted this one before?  I think it might be the same title but by Thyagaraj.

G D Paulraj - Taj Mahal

My friend Kashinath has sent me a photo of this painting by G D Paulraj, it seems to be showing the TajMahal in Agra.  It seems to be a little unusual for Paul to paint a real place, most paintings appear to be imaginary or maybe slightly based on real scenes.

It certainly is a very bright painting, the minarets seem a little skinny to me but it captures the scene.  I have previously added some photos of the Taj captured from a Cine film.  I have added another family photo taken in front of the Taj taken around 1972.  I am the young man on the left.

Lal Mabon Ghose - Boatman - 1912

This is a painting my Lal Mabon Ghose showing a boatman, his signature is shown in full.  In the past his paintings have only shown his initials.

The painting is in colour and others I have seen are in black and white.  The painting is also dated as 1912.  Can anyone confirm where he was from?  Would it be Bengal or some other place?

G D Thyagaraj - Stormy Day

This is a watercolour by G D Thyagaraj of a wild stormy day.  The trees can be seen really blowing in the wind.

It was up for sale on Ebay several years ago, I cannot remember what it sold for.

G D Thyagaraj - Boats on the Beach

I cam e across this painting a year or so ago and it is a boat scene by G D Thyagaraj there are a row of boats on the beach it is quite colourful.

I think it is quite an accomplished painting, hope you like it.

G D Thyagaraj - Boats

I found this painting by G D Thyagaraj sold at an auction in the UK, unfortunately it is only a low quality image so it is hard to tell how good a painting it might be.

Still an interesting painting, the boatman in the foreground looks like he might be about to fall over the side of the boat.
