Mirza Galib

Mirza Ghalib was a 19th-century Urdu and Persian poet whose verses captured the depth of human emotion, love, loss, and existential longing. Renowned for his wit and mastery of language, Ghalib transformed classical poetry into a profound reflection of the modern soul. His works continue to resonate for their timeless exploration of beauty and melancholy.

Akbar Allahabadi

Akbar Allahabadi was a prominent Urdu poet known for his sharp wit, satire, and social commentary. Writing during British colonial India, he used humour and irony to critique changing cultural values and the blind imitation of the West. His poetry blended intellect with simplicity, making deep reflections both entertaining and thought-provoking.

Allama Iqbal

Allama Iqbal was a philosopher, poet, and visionary whose Urdu and Persian poetry inspired spiritual awakening and self-realisation. Often called the “Poet of the East,” he emphasised selfhood (khudi) and the revival of the Muslim world through faith, knowledge, and action. His works continue to inspire generations with their blend of passion, intellect, and hope.

Amir Meenai

Amir Meenai was a distinguished 19th-century Urdu poet and scholar celebrated for his refined ghazals and mastery of classical expression. His poetry beautifully blended romance, spirituality, and elegance of language. A contemporary of Ghalib, he upheld traditional Urdu poetic grace while adding his own depth of feeling and lyrical charm.

Vincent van Gogh

Vincent van Gogh was a Dutch Post-Impressionist painter known for his expressive brushwork and vivid use of color. Though he was impoverished and struggled with mental illness throughout his life, his work posthumously became some of the most famous and influential in Western art history. His legacy as the quintessential "tortured artist" is cemented by his remarkable paintings, such as The Starry Night and his Sunflowers series, and his extensive correspondence with his brother Theo.

Raja Ravi Varma

Raja Ravi Varma was a celebrated 19th-century Indian painter renowned for fusing European academic art techniques with Indian subjects and sensibilities. Often hailed as the "father of modern Indian art," he brought mythological stories from the Mahabharata and Ramayana to life with a unique realistic style. His work also democratised art by producing affordable lithographic prints of his paintings, which allowed common people to possess and engage with fine art. His vibrant depictions of Hindu deities and elegant portraits of women have left a lasting influence on Indian visual culture.

Katsushika Hokusai

Katsushika Hokusai (1760–1849) was a masterful Japanese ukiyo-e artist and printmaker from the Edo period, best known for the iconic woodblock print The Great Wave off Kanagawa. He was a highly innovative and prolific artist who expanded the traditional subject matter of ukiyo-e from portraits of actors and courtesans to landscapes and nature, notably in his series Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji. Hokusai's dynamic compositions and bold use of color, which incorporated Western techniques like linear perspective, profoundly influenced the Impressionists and the broader Japonisme movement in Europe. He was also known for his sketchbooks, called Hokusai Manga, and continued to produce art until his death at age 88.

Amrita Sher-Gil

Amrita Sher-Gil was a Hungarian-Indian painter considered a pioneer of modern Indian art, who uniquely blended European modernist techniques with traditional Indian art forms. After studying in Paris, she returned to India in 1934 to paint the lives of the Indian people, especially women and the poor, drawing inspiration from Ajanta cave paintings and Mughal miniatures. In her tragically short life, she created a significant body of work that has been declared a National Art Treasure by the Indian government and continues to influence artists today.

Edvard Munch

Edvard Munch (1863–1944) was a Norwegian painter and printmaker, best known for his iconic work The Scream. His art often delved into themes of anxiety, death, and existential despair, reflecting his own struggles with personal loss and mental health. Munch's expressive use of color and bold, emotionally charged brushwork broke from traditional realism, establishing him as a pioneering figure in the Symbolist and Expressionist movements. His works are celebrated for their raw emotional power and their ability to convey universal human fears and passions.

Frida Kahlo

Frida Kahlo (1907–1954) was a Mexican artist known for her vivid, surreal self-portraits that explored themes of identity, pain, and gender. Her work often combined Mexican folk art with surrealist elements, reflecting her personal struggles with illness, injury, and her complex relationship with Diego Rivera. Kahlo became a feminist icon and a symbol of resilience, challenging societal norms and celebrating Mexican culture. Today, she remains one of the most influential and celebrated artists of the 20th century.
