Artist Rumale Chennabasaviah's Paintings Capture Bangalore's Changing Landscape
Artist Rumale Chennabasaviah (1910-1988) captured Bangalore's transformation through vibrant paintings depicting its lush greenery and evolving urban landscape. His works, created mainly after the 1960s, reflect the city's flowering trees and early signs of urbanization, preserving a fading memory of the garden city. A recently released book compiles his reflections on art, politics, and nation-building, offering insight into his life and creative process as a plein air artist dedicated to portraying Karnataka's changing environment.
