About Puppet Princess in Ceremonial Dress of Thai Poe Dance Prosanto Roy Bengal School Art Painting
Prosanto Roy (1908 - 1973) was a Bengal School artist who sought to integrate figuration with a keen sense of geometric design. Proshanto’s themes were often rooted in fairy tales and myth, and the fragmented, kaleidoscopic approach he took to his work created a mysterious, mystical quality to his images. In his stylistic choices, Roy was inspired by Cubism, especially as practiced by Gaganendranath Tagore which in turn was derived from principles of the Bauhaus movement. Roy was closely connected to the Tagores, studying first under Rabindranath Tagore and then with Abanindranath. Nature, old Calcutta, people and their preoccupations, and episodes from Oriental narratives formed his subjects.
