A museum walk and baithak on the paintings of Amrita Sher-Gil and her life
**"I can only paint in India. Europe belongs to Picasso, Matisse, Braque.... India belongs only to me." - Amrita Sher-Gil**
As you wander through, you’ll be greeted by Sher-Gil’s iconic masterpieces like "Young Girls," "Bride's Toilet," and "The Village Scene." Each painting bursts with color and emotion, capturing everyday Indian life in a way that's both timeless and modern. It's like seeing India through Amrita’s eyes—bold, beautiful, and brimming with life.
But it’s not just about the paintings! The exhibit is peppered with fascinating tidbits from Amrita’s life. You’ll see personal photos, love letters, and quirky artifacts that give you a sneak peek into her world. Did you know she was dubbed the 'Indian Frida Kahlo'? Her life was just as captivating as her art—full of passion, rebellion, and an insatiable zest for creativity.
