Manjit Bawa

Oil on canvas (22 x 25 inches)

Born in Dhuri, Punjab, Manjeet Bawa (1941–2008) is celebrated as one of India's most influential contemporary artists. Rejecting the complexities of modern abstraction, Bawa developed a distinctive style characterised by bold areas of luminous colour, graceful compositions, and subjects drawn from Indian mythology, spirituality, rural life, and everyday humanity. His celebrated bodies of work include his iconic depictions of Lord Krishna, bulls, goats, crows, and other symbolic figures that have become synonymous with his artistic legacy.

Widely admired not only for his extraordinary talent but also for his humility and compassionate nature, Bawa's paintings reflect a remarkable sense of serenity and clarity. The balance, refinement, and tranquillity evident throughout his work are often regarded as an extension of his own thoughtful character.

This intimate portrait exemplifies the qualities that have made Manjeet Bawa one of India's most sought-after artists. Combining exquisite detail, harmonious colour, and profound emotional presence, it represents an outstanding opportunity for collectors to acquire an authentic work by a true master of modern Indian art.
