Oil on canvas 152.4 cm x 101.6 cm (60" x 40") In this composition—of set colourist slabs bathed in mose greens and touched with a twilight hued ground, we view a neo-pastoral scene, as it were. Contented, peaceable bovines stud this rather calm place with their reassuring presence. A bell announcing tranquillity hangs in the middle, highlighting the oblique artistic design of the painter. Self-evidently, the cultural profile of much of India is incomplete minus the symbolic role that creatures such as cows play in its collective psyche.
