P B Surendranath - Village Street

This is the photo of the second painting by Surendranath titled "Village Street" might have been originally priced at Rs 30/-.  Nice painting similar to the one I own.

This was on Ebay and month ago along with the previous painting.
UPDATE Still for Sale: The owner of this painting and the second has contacted me at the start of September 2011.  She lives in the USA and is still looking to sell both paintings.  If you are interested in buying one or both of them just email me and I will pass on your details to her. 

P B Surendranath - People By The River

This painting was for sale recently on Ebay, I am not sure whether it sold or not.  The seller was asking around $1000 maybe for two paintings.  I think this painting might have a price pencilled on the rear showing Rs 30/-, if correct this was quite cheap for the time.

He ended up being Principal, at the Government College of Arts and Crafts, Kumbakonam.  I think he died in 2010 and the following picture of the artist might have been taken in 2007.  I believe this is the same college that Paul Raj studied at but some years before Surendranath.

L M Ghose - Boat at Sunset

This is an photo of an L M Ghose painting that I have received by email.  I have covered some of his painting in this past but I still know very little about him. 

Some of his paintings that I own are dated between 1910 and 1918, this one does not have a visible date.

Tablecloth - Snake Charmer

This is the last photo from the tablecloth series and it depicts the only male on the cloth who is a snake charmer.

G D Thyagaraj - Temple and Flame in the Forest Tree

This painting is by G D Thyagaraj and was found by Kashinath on his travels around India.

Interestingly this painting has very little green in it, a lot of brown, orange and red with some blue sky.  I find it a bright and cheerful painting.  Thanks Kashinath for sharing.
