In 1979, Jehangir Sabavala summed up the nature of his creative process, saying that painting for him was 'an unceasing battle to achieve perfection'. ⠀
.⠀
Although the artist's quest for constant reinvention and perfection spanned all six decades of his career, by 1981, when 'The Peasants' was painted, he had realised control of structure, color, light and texture.⠀
.⠀
This seminal painting connects past, present and future in the arc of Sabavala's long artistic career. Building on the early series of figurative works that the artist painted on his return to India in the mid-1950s, 'The Peasants' is inspired by the people and landscapes the artist encountered on his travels around the country, particularly its Western states. At the same, this painting foreshadows works that the artist would paint almost three decades later, in which these central figures reappear, taking on an even more mysterious and prophetic aura.⠀
