Building, Gujarat

Footnotes

Provenance:
Ambika Dhurandhar, the artist's daughter.
Private UK collection since 1995.

The title is Ambika Dhurandhar's own.

The muscular architectural shaping of this composition and the bold introduction of a tripod in the foreground owe much to Dhurandhar's keen but non-derivative observation of the subject-matter in contemporary English painting.
