Medium | Acrylic on paper |
Size | 3/2 |
Description | The painting depicts a traditional scene where three women are engaged in the process of preparing or handling yarn. In the center, an elderly woman sits upright with a calm and composed expression. She is adorned with traditional jewelry, a bindi on her forehead, and a sari covering her head. On either side of her, two younger women are seated in a squatting position, focused intently on their task. They seem to be handling threads or yarn from a large basket filled with neatly wound balls of yarn placed in front of them. The overall composition is simple yet powerful, with strong lines and minimal shading, drawing attention to the cultural and communal aspect of the activity. The background is kept dark, which makes the figures stand out prominently, emphasizing the traditional atmosphere of the scene. |
