  • Handmade: Yes
  • Country/Region of Manufacture: India
  • Condition: Good and flaking in areas. Many have told me this could be an early self-portrait by Amrita Sher-Gil while she was in Shimla in the 1920's. It is painted on wood, is un-signed and measures 41" x 36". The Lotus Mudrah means Purity and the opening of the heart. I paid a lot for this but do not care as it has always given me peace and has hung on the office wall directly across my desk and monitors for many years. Moving to Florida and doesn't go with our downsizing.

    Description

    Here you go art experts...  I just buy what calls to me...  speaks to me.  You can see my listings run from antique canoes, milk boxes, Danny Doughty, Billy Schenck, John Steinbeck.
    You decide.  Amrita Sher-Gil or just an old, flaking 1920's watercolor on a wood surface of a young woman holding a lotus flower in her right hand and holding her left hand in a Lotus/Purity mudrah.  Kind of looks like an Indian "Mona Lisa" to me so I've had it on my wall across from me for 20+ years.  She has made me a better person every day.  Striking.
    I'll start her low and see what the market thinks and says.  The buy it now is what I paid pre 9/11.  Museum piece, Deal of the century or ripped off, I think she's paid for herself a million times over!  Time to go to a new and loving home.
