1/2
Description
Arup Das (1924 - 2004)
Pen and Ink on Paper
10.5 x 12 Inches
Signed Upper Left
Year - 1969
This work depicts Arup Das’ deep engagement with religious iconography; he drew from Hindu, Buddhist, and Christian traditions to mirror India’s diverse cultural and spiritual landscape. Executed in expressive, angular linework, the composition presents a central figure with raised, clasped hands, another bent under the weight of a cross, and a mounted figure above. The Christian imagery aligns with Das’s broader practice, where religious references often heighten themes of human endurance and struggle without veering into overt devotion.
