One of India’s premier artists, Lalu Prosad Shaw’s, paintings are figurative, the narrative is nostalgic; imbued with humour, lyrical and tongue-in- cheek of human relationships. His images, recollect Bengal’s traditional art of the Alpana and Patachitra and recall Company School imagery. The paintings and drawings reveal the strong linear skills and the secular and cosmopolitan nature of Lalu Prosad Shaw.  The catalogue also includes a comprehensive essay by Ms. Rita Datta, in which Lalu Prosad Shaw’s artistic journey and his influences from various sources of Bengal art and culture are explored.
