Jamini Roy (1887-1972) was one of the most important artists of the modern period in India, drawing on the popular and folk traditions of rural Bengal for his inspiration. He developed his own personal style which was characterised by bold lines and flat use of colour.
This sketch is one of a series in the V&A collection which show his experimentation with different subject matter. It is an example of the artist's early exploration of Biblical themes. The drawing depicts the figure of Christ in Majesty, seated cross-legged. His left hand rests on a book of scriptures which is placed on a smallish table. His left hand instead, points upwards. On either side there is a standing figure of a saint facing the figure of Christ.
