Badri Narayan, Untitled 02 Paintings, The amorous game, Part 52 – With Footnotes

Badri Narayan (22 July 1929, Secunderabad, India – 23 September 2013, Bangalore) was an artist, illustrator, author and story-teller.

Narayan began painting with no formal training, and his first public showing was in 1949, followed by a solo show in 1954. He had over 50 solo shows and his work is in several collections, including the National Gallery of Modern Art and the National Museum in New Delhi as well as the Philadelphia Museum of Art’s South Asian Collection. Initially, he worked on tile and ceramic, and this informed some of his subsequent water-colours. His paintings are intimate and appealing, often with an element of fantasy, with simple outlines and accessible subject matter in two-dimensional stylised representations. He worked primarily in ink or pastel and watercolour.
