Lot 183: Jamini Roy (1887-1972), Untitled (Drummers)

A framed folk art painting by Jamini Roy (1887-1972) on cloth, depicting three stylized, anthropomorphic figures. The central figure is rendered with a yellow body, flanked by two brown-bodied figures, each holding a drum-like instrument. The painting is executed with bold outlines and flat colors, characteristic of a traditional folk art aesthetic. Below the central figures, legible text in Bengali script reads ‘শ্রী লক্ষ্মী সরস্বতী’ (Shri Lakshmi Saraswati). The artwork is bordered by a vibrant, stitched silk textile mat featuring geometric diamond patterns in red, orange, green, blue, and white.
