BIOGRAPHY


Art by M.F. HusainMaqbool Fida “M.F.” Husain was one of the most celebrated and internationally recognized modern Indian artists of the 20th Century. Acclaimed for his wide range of media and subjects, he tackled topics as diverse as Gandhi, Mother Teresa, the Ramayana, the Mahabharata, the British raj and traditional motifs of Indian life across his original paintings, drawings, screen prints and even photographs. From his beginnings as an artist until his death, he also particularly enjoyed depicting the lively and free spirit of horses.

Art by M.F. Husain encompassed his many interests and talents. “I enjoy experimenting with various media and ideas in my work because the horizon is so vast and Indian culture is so rich that I believe that who we are culturally today is very unique,” he once said. “I don’t think one lifetime is enough to encompass its many gifts and showcase
them in art.”

M. F. Husain attended the J.J. School of Art in Mumbai. Early in his career, he painted cinema posters and worked for a toy company designing and building products. He was a founding member of the influential Bombay Progressive Artists Group and a respected filmmaker, with his popular film “Gaja Gamini” starring Madhuri Dixit. He was also a member of the Indian Parliament from 1986 to 1992. He spent his last remaining years between Dubai, Doha and London, where he passed away in 2011.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS


Can you help source original artwork by M.F. Husain?

Yes, in addition to our collection of serigraphs, we do sell original paintings by M.F. Husain. We frequently collaborate with private collectors, art dealers and partner galleries to source authentic originals by modern artists on request.

What is a serigraph?

Serigraphs are a type of high quality, limited edition screen print made on high quality paper in collaboration with the artist. Each print is numbered and signed by the artist.

What is the serigraphic printing process?

Producing serigraphs is a meticulous, completely manual process. Using the original artwork as the master guide, a different stencil is created for each color that will compose the image. Then, the ink is pushed through the corresponding stencil onto the paper and then laid flat on a drying rack. This step is repeated multiple times, using a separate stencil for each color. A single serigraphic print can have as many as 25 colors or more.

What makes a print more valuable?

The value of a serigraph is determined by the artist’s notability, the edition size and the presence of a signature. A serigraph’s most important feature is the artist’s signature, which confirms its authenticity as a genuine artwork.

Are fine art prints a good investment?

Yes, the value of a serigraph can keep increasing with time, depending on the artist’s historical importance and the specific serigraph.

Are the serigraphs signed?

Each print has been hand-signed by the artist and also comes with a certificate of authenticity.
