Descent Of Twilight

Self-taught artist, Indra Dugar spent his childhood in Santiniketan, surrounded by nature away from the bustle of urban life which inspired his landscapes celebrated for their stunning representation of natural beauty. The trees dominate the landscape in this painting. Their imposing figures are set against the soft light of the last embers of dusk. The stature of the trees projects strength and endurance, as they stand tall against the changing light and the changing of seasons. The depth in the shade of green that the artist has used on the trees creates a sense of timelessness. With the darkness of the night enveloping them, the trees almost appear menacing as they stand as a symbol of nature’s endurance.
