P.A. Dhond
(1908 - 2001)
Medium: Watercolour on Paper
Size: 15 n x 22n Dhond was born at Ratnagiri in Maharashtra on November 11, 1908. Dhond took his primary and secondary education in Malvan. He moved to Mumbai for his matriculation and joined Sir J.J. School of Art in 1930 and completed a Diploma in 1934. He became Dean of Sir J. J. School of Art in 1958. ⠀ Dhond did over 7,000 landscapes spanned over seven decades. The prolific artist held several solo shows at Santiniketan (1949), Jehangir Art Gallery (1971, '73, '98), Artists Centre (1991) and Goa kala Academy (1996). ⠀ ⠀ Initially, he was into portraits, but soon switched to landscapes in watercolour after the water colors of Russel Flint whose oeuvre consisted wholly of seascapes, also greatly influenced him. He stuck to the same medium after taking advice of renowned art critic Rusi Von Lyden. Dhond devoted his life to water colors that he mastered as a medium. ⠀ The pristine seascape of the Konkan belt inspired him greatly. Picturesque settings of Konkan and Goa - waves, boats, fishermen and coconut palms - were ideal settings for him. Famous artists like B. Prabha, Dattatray Padekar and Prafulla Dahanukar were students under his tutelage. Dhond also served as the Director of Art for Maharashtra. ⠀ ⠀ One of India's oldest surviving contemporary painters, Pralhad Anant Dhond, longed to express till his last breath, therefore at the age of 92, he visited the Kerala backwaters to capture some beautiful images. He came to be known as one of India's celebrated landscape painters. He often said: "I feel like a child at my heart for whom this world is a novelty”⠀Price on Request
