Ramkinkar Baij
Ramkinkar Baij was born in 1906 in Jugipada, Bankura, West Bengal, India.
Baij, Ramkinkar (Artist). Santhal Couple. Tempera on cloth, c.1930 | Painting | FineArts | 00641713
In 2016, the artist achieved a new high in the auction market with the sale of Santhal Couple (1930), offered in the Modern Indian Art by Asta Guru, which concluded on 22 March 2016 at Online, achieving a sale price of ₹1,80,91,793 ($271,889). This record marked a defining moment in the artist's market history, reflecting both the significance of the artwork and its reception within the broader art world.
Baij, Ramkinkar (Artist). Farmers Harvesting. Watercolour on paper, c.1943 | Painting | FineArts | 00373295
Ramkinkar’s watercolours stand a little apart from the rest of his oeuvre. They represent his immediate response to visual facts and are free from pre-concepts and after thoughts… They were done on the spot and with great speed and often came in a series recording a perception or experience close on its heels… In his watercolours an unregulated expression of his sensibility comes through, in them Ramkinkar can be said to be chasing the transient
Baij, Ramkinkar (Artist). Nude. Watercolour on paper, 1943 | Painting | FineArts | 00376641
When Ramkinkar sat down with his sketch-pad before his landscape each common spot underwent a change. Each little detail came to throbbing life. He modest trees bristled up with a primitive vigour and the foliage took on a new sheen and vivacity. The sky played hide and seek with the barren earth, now zooming forward with a patch of blue, now going into hiding under a veil of grey. The seasonal nuances came out with great authenticity. In his company we saw nature in a new light
Baij, Ramkinkar (Artist). Landscape In Spring. Watercolour on silk, 1947 | Painting | 00876698
In 1998, the artist achieved a new high in the auction market with the sale of Landscape In Spring (1947), offered in the Twentieth Century Indian Art by Christie's, which concluded on 02 June 1998 at London, achieving a sale price of ₹3,14,479 ($7,539). This record marked a defining moment in the artist's market history, reflecting both the significance of the artwork and its reception within the broader art world.
Baij, Ramkinkar (Artist). Bust Of Ira Vakil (Nee Chaudhuri). Plaster of Paris on cement pedestal, 1947 | Sculpture | FineArts | 00757212
In 2011, the artist achieved a new high in the auction market with the sale of Bust Of Ira Vakil (Nee Chaudhuri) (1947), offered in the Creative India Series 1: Bengal by Osian's, which concluded on 15 December 2011 at New Delhi, achieving a sale price of ₹28,80,000 ($53,102). This record marked a defining moment in the artist's market history, reflecting both the significance of the artwork and its reception within the broader art world.
Baij, Ramkinkar (Artist). Parganas Landscape. Watercolour on paper, early 1950s | Painting | FineArts | 00371678
Ramkinkar does a great number of landscapes with a rythmic spatial structure enlivened by judiciously laid washes and hatchings of brilliant colour in between; their varied densities and surface breaks accentuate the movement. Thematically they veer round the Santiniketan landscape, the Nepal panaroma, the Shillong lakes and hillsides; the rhythms vary with the location and the subject. The technique is, to an extent, modelled on Cezanne’s; the overall spatial statement is made with neutral washes, the spaces between are manipulated with colour layers of various stress and intensity forward or backward. But this, despite the linear drama, is prominent.
Baij, Ramkinkar (Artist). Threshing Series. Oil on canvas, c.1956 | Painting | 00879850
In 2006, the artist achieved a new high in the auction market with the sale of Threshing Series (1956), offered in the Masterpieces & Museum Quality Series VI: With Rare Drawings and Books on Indian Contemporary Art by Osian's, which concluded on 01 March 2006 at New Delhi, achieving a sale price of ₹13,80,000 ($31,116). This record marked a defining moment in the artist's market history, reflecting both the significance of the artwork and its reception within the broader art world.
Baij, Ramkinkar (Artist). Festive Eve. Oil on canvas, c.1960 | Painting | FineArts | 00645693
In 2013, the artist achieved a new high in the auction market with the sale of Festive Eve (1960), offered in the South Asian Art by Christie's, which concluded on 19 December 2013 at Mumbai, achieving a sale price of ₹52,50,000 ($84,162). This record marked a defining moment in the artist's market history, reflecting both the significance of the artwork and its reception within the broader art world.

- "What does 𝗦𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗷 truly mean? Is freedom achieved at a single historic moment or period, or must self-rule be continually imagined, questioned and renewed? India's journey towards Swaraj was shaped not by one voice or one path, but through reform and resistance, revolution and non-violence, political thought, public protest, art, print, photography, cinema and the collective will of its people. The Tuli Research Centre for India Studies (T.R.I.S.) presents 𝗦𝗪𝗔𝗥𝗔𝗝: 𝗥𝗲𝘃𝗶𝘀𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗮'𝘀 𝗣𝗼𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗛𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆, a pioneering exhibition curated by Neville Tuli. Bringing together rare artworks, prints, photographs, books, film publicity art, political propaganda and visual-textual-audio archives, SWARAJ traces India's complex journey towards political self-rule and self-discovery. From early European coastal encounters, the Bengal Renaissance and the First War of Independence in 1857 to the rise of Bharat Mata, the Tiranga, Gandhiji's inspired satyagraha, civil disobedience and mass mobilisation, the exhibition explores how the idea of India was envisioned, contested and transformed. It journeys through revolutionary movements and non-violence, subaltern uprisings, the Partition, the Constitution, the integration of the Princely States, the Emergency, wars, civic dissent and people's protests. It also foregrounds the vital role of artists, photographers, publishers, newspapers, journals, cartoons and cinema in recording and shaping the nation's political consciousness. SWARAJ invites us to encounter history not as something distant or settled, but as a daily living inheritance that continues to influence who we are and how we understand freedom, identity, and ourselves today. Watch the video for a glimpse into this expansive visual journey, and follow the exhibition as it revisualises India's political history through art, image, text and sound.
