Jamini Roy (1887-1972) Untitled (Rider on Horseback) signed 'Jamini Roy' in Bengali lower right tempera on handmade paper, framed 42 x 30.2cm (16 9/16 x 11 7/8in). Footnotes: Provenance Property from a private collection, Scotland. Acquired in India in the 1950s/1960s by the grandfather who served in the armed forces in India. Thence by descent; Acquired from Thomas Roddick Callan Auctioneers, Ayrshire Roy's hallmark style, inspired by traditional Indian folk art is evident in this work. The artist employs a simplified, linear form that imparts a sense of authenticity and timelessness to the scene. The rider and horse are rendered with economy and grace, creating a visual rhythm that mirrors the essence of storytelling. Roy's skilful application of earthy colours highlights their expressive qualities and imbues the composition with a warm, luminous quality. Moreover, Roy's bold use of line and form is central to the work's visual impact. His mastery lies in his ability to distil the essence of the horse and rider into elemental shapes, capturing their dynamism and strength.
