Original drypoint etching, orange flower print, indian art, bengali

Description

Characteristic to spring in Bengal, the 'Palash' or the Flame of the Forest flower does just what its name suggests -- it lights up the entire landscape with its striking orange-red flame-like colour -- and not surprisingly, it finds mention in multiple compositions written by Tagore. Its colour, form and presence are addictive, and here I have incorporated a beautiful phrase in Bengali expressing just that from one of Tagore's songs!
