    The first signs of progressing towards a more radical modernist language beyond post-impressionism can be seen in some of Ramkinkar's drawings from the late thirties and until the later years. Their general theme is landscape, and the motifs are primarily rows of trees and huts, interspersed at times with a few figures. In this particular painting, he has rendered a mountainous terrain with dabs and dashes of watercolour, with the individual forms harmoniously blending into each other.
