Wrapped in saffron,
the color of austerity, feminine allure manifests in the form of the youthful
woman, who is the subject of this ethereal oil on canvas. Drawing from his home
state’s beauty, Sidharth Gavade blows life into a canvas, and how!
The woman is attired
in a simple Paithani
saree, draped in Navari style, with a brocaded border, and its pallu neatly
tucked near her waist. Traditional gold ornament, a Marathi bindi (forehead
design), and green bangles ornament the woman. With her hands placed on the
doorjamb, the woman strikes a graceful posture, her head looking up with hope
and happiness in her eyes.
Perfect layering and
mixing of colors on the canvas have captured the pose and form of the woman to
perfection. Keeping the background wooden and dark, the artist has given center
stage to his subject, whose presence on canvas is boldly announced.
The viewer is
intrigued to gaze at the woman, to know her and the reason behind her smiling
face.
The contrast between
the austerity of her saffron drape and blooming youthfulness creates a magical
balance of emotions, which is moving yet calming to experience. The stance
suggests that the subject rushed outside, maybe to welcome a loved one, or their
news. The absence of sindoor on her
forehead suggests that the woman is yet to be married. If not her husband,
could she be waiting for her beloved? Whatever the reason may be, the animated
subject of this painting fills the heart with a tranquil bliss and takes the
mind to the rain-fed environs of Maharashtra, whose colorful culture has lent a
deep meaning to this delightful artwork.
