Jamini Roy's mastery over the techniques of the great European painters led him to paint local landscapes using tempera. He also painted some portraits in this fashion. Interestingly, he continued to show these European style landscapes and portraits along with his newly-evolved folk style. In this particular painting, the artist has rendered the portrait of a man in the wash technique by using tonal variations of black ink.
