M. F. Husain’s name has become almost synonymous with modern Indian art, for no single artist has popularised Indian art. M F Husain was a special invitee along with Pablo Picasso at the Sao Paulo Biennial (Brazil) in 1971.

About Benaras Maqbool Fida Husain Painting
M.F. Husain’s Benaras (Varanasi) series represents one of the most spiritually charged and visually distinct chapters of his artistic career. He first visited the ancient city in 1960 alongside fellow Progressive artist Ram Kumar. While Kumar responded to Benaras with muted, melancholic, and architectural abstractions, Husain reacted to the city’s intense, chaotic, and vibrant human landscape.Benaras by Maqbool Fida Husain is a vibrant celebration of one of India's most sacred cities. Rendered in Husain’s distinctive modernist style, the painting captures the spiritual energy of Varanasi through bold colors, dynamic forms, and rhythmic compositions. The artwork reflects the city's timeless ghats, religious rituals, and cultural vitality, blending tradition and modern expression to evoke the enduring soul of the ancient city on the banks of the Ganges.About the Art Prints
