Description

A delightful collectible in excellent condition, this is an Air India poster from 1964, used by the airline company to promote its flights to the popular holiday destination of Sydney, Australia. Air India used to provide travel agents with posters as part of its advertising and sales promotion activities. One of India’s most recognisable and loved mascots, the Air India Maharajah can be seen in the poster, along with a mermaid, enjoying a sun-kissed beach in Sydney. The subtly humorous poster pays great attention to detail, too – some Air India-branded goodies can be seen in the bag lying next to the mermaid on the sand. Printed on high quality paper, the poster is framed and comes with a glass covering.

ABOUT Test Page

Born in 1965 in the small coastal town of Udupi in Karnataka, Gurudas Shenoy is an acclaimed artist with a career spanning over three decades. Having been born to senior artist G.S. Shenoy, he lived and breathed art since the day he was born, and developed a passion for the colours of nature at an early age. M.F. Husain, a close friend of his father's, was a mentor, and has hugely inspired Gurudas Shenoy's journey as an artist. He has held numerous solo exhibitions and participated in 200+ group shows at leading art galleries in India, including several at the Jehangir Art Gallery, Mumbai.

Known for his abstract and vibrant cityscapes, Gurudas Shenoy graduated from the Faculty of Fine Arts, M.S. University, Baroda in 1988. Shenoy’s passion for nature and its brilliant hues, and cities with their vibrancy and multitude of stories, reflects in his paintings. Dexterous use of colours, lines, light and textures, forms the crux of his stunning abstract cityscapes, capturing the dynamism of architectural spaces with their historicity. Gurudas Shenoy also revisits landscapes from the past - vast abstract terrains, with their undulating surfaces and shadows on the ground. While his medium of choice is oil on canvas, the award-winning artist has a fondness for watercolours, and after much experimentation, he has managed to create a watercolour-like lightness in his oil paintings.
