G D paulraj - 2 x Oil paintings

I recently came across these two oil paintings for sale by an antiques dealer in the UK, I made an enquiry about the price but the reply advised that the paintings had already been sold. We do not see very many oil paintings by Paul Raj so it is exciting when they do appear.

A typical cart convoy with trees in oil so it appears to be brighter, maybe the oil paint is retaining the colours better than the watercolours?

The second oil painting is a street scene with vendors selling fruit and vegetables.  Both are very nice paintings in original frames from the time that they were painted.

Air India International Silk Scarf

I recently came across a silk scarf which had 21 prints of Air-India coasters printed on it from the 1960s.  My wife has got this framed and now it is hanging on the wall in our house.  I can remember the coasters from the time I travelled on Air India when my sister and I would collect them.  The prints on the scarf are a little larger than the actual drinks coasters.  The frame measures 95cm x 95cm.

It is far better framed than in a drawer, it can now be appreciated and you can laugh at some of the different cities depicted in the coasters.
