Literary Reference
" Under Taikan’s influence, Abanindranath gave up strong colours and hard outlines, learning to draw each line with great care, and with a light touch. He discovered the importance of gesture and brushstroke from Japanese art, adapting the morotai wash technique for his own purposes. "Partha Mitter, “The Bengal School: The Rise of Artistic Nationalism in India”, Modern Indian Painting: Jane & Kito de Boer Collection, Ahmedabad: Mapin Publishing, 2019, p. 27 rpt. in Sa.Onl/14.12.23, Lot 67
