A lot of S. H. Raza’s work, particularly the ones he did in France, his home for six decades, stressed less on the forms of nature but more on the way colour got structured. La Berge (The Bank) is a French word that means ‘the edge of a canal’ and the painter renders this work in the language of abstraction, focusing on the colour and texture rather than an imposing form, thus, reflecting it as a fine example of Raza’s artistic language at the time.
