• The Three Pujarins by Jamini Roy - This phenomenal mastery of Jamini Roy makes a breathtaking appearance and is inspired from the traditional Bengali folk art with an array of striking and vibrant colours especially the use of the classic indigo colour - is somewhat a subtle way of voicing protest against the British Government in India.       

•   Sakuntala by Raja Ravi Varma - The exuberance and playful representation of Sakuntala with all her elegance and beauty is mesmerizingly captured by Raja Ravi Varma in his composition 'Sakuntala'. It is not only the portrayal of Sakuntala's beauty but also talks about her innocence in a very subtle way through the imagination of the artist. This depiction serves as an exemplary creative genius of a wonderfully creative mind.
