    The peacock seems to have been a favourite subject for Abanindranath Tagore. This could have been done in the early phase of his paintings from 1915 onwards. He was using a darker toned palette at the time as can be seen in the yellows, browns, greys and greens in this image. The bird is fore grounded against a misty wooded landscape.
