Hyderabad: The representation of landscapes existed long before establishing itself as an exclusive art genre in its own right. Capturing mountains, valleys, bodies of water, fields, forests and coastlines from different corners and corners of the world, landscape art familiarized multitudes of people before photography was invented.

Over time, the practice grew and artists traveled to faraway places to bring the exquisite bounty of nature to their audiences. Modern Indian artists have also been heavily inspired to create landscape art from several picturesque locations of the rural and urban spaces that India abounds in. These trips gave them the opportunity to paint their surroundings.

Here are some iconic landscape paintings by Indian modernists that have already been featured in our auctions.

The word “Takdah” means mist in the Lepcha language and the artist therefore incorporated an element of mist enveloping the rows of pine trees and deciduous cedars. The work was carried out in 1938.
