Bengal school of painting

The Bengal School of Painting was an influential artistic movement in India during the early 20th century, led by artists like Abanindranath Tagore. It aimed to revive traditional Indian art styles and move away from Western artistic influences. The movement emphasized Indian themes, mythology, and cultural heritage, blending traditional techniques with modern ideas. Its works often feature spiritual, poetic qualities and a focus on indigenous aesthetics. This movement played a key role in fostering national identity and cultural pride, influencing subsequent Indian art development. It remains a significant chapter in India's artistic history.
