Ramkinkar Baij’s artistic temperament was defined at Santiniketan an art institution known for providing an informed western modernistic environment to the students. Baij was immensely influenced by his austere surroundings, the ordinary people and nature that became the subject matter for painting and sculpture. In this abstract painting, the artist has depicted a shelter with human figures below it rendered with smudged strokes of paint, outlined with white colour to delineate the forms and suggest the demeanour of the subjects.
