Contemporary British painter and printmaker Howard Hodgkin had a lifelong love for India. He completed Indian Views in 1971 as a series of mental snapshots he observed through train windows while traveling across India. These screenprints capture the essence of the vibrant Indian terrain that a passenger may experience from a momentary glance out their window.

A beautiful impression; some barely-visible and faint smudges at edges possibly from printing process.
