Untitled is a 1996 paint by Unknown, depicting Kalighat, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting shows three tall, colorful figures standing side by side. Their faces are big, with exaggerated eyes and bold red lips. Two figures wear ornate headdresses with flames and jewels, while the middle figure has a simpler crown. All three are dressed in bright robes—red, orange, and gold—with intricate patterns. A small blue figure stands off to the right, holding something in its hand. The figures look like they’re part of a religious scene, with strong colors and dramatic expressions. The style is flat and decorative, not realistic. If you like this kind of art, look up kalighat next.
The painting is an opaque watercolor on paper from 1996, depicting the Jagannath triad—Jagannatha (Krishna), Balabhadra, and Subhadra.
