    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 sketch, the artist has depicted flowering trees, rendered with dabs and dashes of watercolour in tonal variations. The treatment is intended to exemplify an energetic and lively artistic temperament.
