Description
GEORGIAN ERA PAINITNG FRAMED ART PRINT Brahminy Starling with Two Antheraea Moths, Caterpillar, & Cocoon on Indian Jujube Tree, by Sheikh Zain al-Din (Sheikh Zainuddin), 1777. Sheikh Zain al-Din was an 18th Century Bengali Muslim artist, working in Company style (kampani kalam) painting technique, a blend of traditional elements from Rajput & Mughal painting with a more Western perspective & themes. The painting style aimed to appeal to European (especially British) patrons & since many of these patrons worked for the various East India companies, this painting style came to be associated with the name, although it was in fact also used for paintings produced for local rulers & other Indian patrons. The subject matter was often documentary, rather than imaginative, often depicting scenes from everyday life, festivals, sights or plants & animals of the subcontinent. There's something extremely satisfying in the precision of the lines & minute detail of this work. It is simultaneosuly highly stylized & very organic, with the balletic balance of every little creature on the branch & the gorgeous imperfections of the leaves & flowers. Beautifully observed & executed with utmost clarity & love.
