AstaGuru's Iconic Masters Online Auction (11-12 August 2026) presents a melodic selection of works that celebrate the timeless relationship between music and visual art. Through musicians, instruments and moments of celebration, these artists capture the cadence, emotion and ritual of everyday life.

Jaysri Burman's Sankirtan captures the energy and devotion of collective musical celebration, her intricate watercolour and ink technique bringing the spirit of music to life. B Prabha's Untitled celebrates the harmony of everyday life, her figures engaged in the act of creation with warmth and sensitivity. Krishen Khanna's Bandwallas transform brass band musicians into meditations on dignity and labour, each figure observed with sympathy and depth.

Music, in these works, becomes more than performance. It becomes emotion, ritual and a shared human experience that transcends time.

AstaGuru's Iconic Masters: Modern Indian Art Online Auction (11-12 August 2026) presents a compelling selection of figurative works by Krishen Khanna, F. N. Souza, Manjit Bawa and M. F. Husain. Through four distinct artistic languages, these masters transformed the human figure into a profound exploration of identity, emotion and artistic expression.

Krishen Khanna's Bandwallas elevate everyday brass band musicians into enduring meditations on dignity, labour and the quiet theatre of public life. F. N. Souza transformed portraiture into a study of psychological intensity, constructing his figures through fractured planes, insistent black contours and unwavering gazes that hold the tension between the sacred and the visceral. Manjit Bawa distilled the figure into graceful forms suspended against luminous fields of colour, where fluid contours, simplicity and stillness evoke moments of profound contemplation. M. F. Husain redefined the figure through gesture and presence, stripping it of narrative to reveal a dynamic language of movement and expressive ambiguity.

Together, these remarkable works demonstrate how four of India's most celebrated modernists expanded the expressive possibilities of the human figure, each shaping a distinct visual language that continues to define the legacy of Modern Indian Art.

AstaGuru’s Iconic Masters Online Auction (11-12 August 2026) presents a compelling selection of works that honour the feminine through moments of quiet introspection, ritual, resilience, and everyday life, with each artist bringing a distinct visual language to their portrayal.

Hemendranath Mazumdar’s Shadow captures the interior life of a woman caught in a moment entirely her own, rendered in monochromatic tones that deepen the introspective mood. B. Prabha’s Untitled celebrates the rhythm and grace of everyday life. Anjolie Ela Menon’s Untitled reveals her distinctive vision of the feminine, rendered with sensitivity and depth. K. H. Ara’s Nartiki captures the ritual of preparation before a performance, where the deliberate assembling of a self about to become public is rendered with loose, intuitive brushwork.

Together, these works represent the diversity and depth of figurative expression celebrating women in modern Indian art.
