Inspiring Women-1: Amrita Sher-Gil

Why Inspiring Women?
'Inspiring Women' will be a series of most inspiring women and their great work in one place. This intends to bring forward a woman's contribution in a time which would often be mentioned as 'A Man's World'. It salutes their spirit and work.

It is my earnest request to you to share these posts as much as possible to increase awareness and inspire plenty other women there. You never know when someone's life may just turn around, when a single moment can be her 'Eureka'.

Please share in comments below/email me if you want some woman to be covered in this series.

P.S. This doesn't mean there aren't men worthy of appraisal. We may have a Man Series too, maybe future.


Who Is Amrita Sher-Gil?
Often known as 'Frida Kahlo', she was one of the most prominent woman painters of the 20th Century. She was also tagged as 'Most Expensive' woman painter of the time. To be precise, her 'Village Scene' painting sold for INR 6.9Cr In Delh Auction (V.High for India).  Her work was declared by GOI(Government of India) as National Art Treasures, mostly housed in National Gallery of Modern Art, New Delhi.

Personally I think she's so beautiful! The olden glory with a hint of Rekha-don't you think?
