Still-Life With Idol



“Still-Life With Idol” by Prabhakar Raobail, acrylic on paper, 38 x 28 cm, 2004

Dharwad-based cartoonist and painter Prabhakar Raobail, 71, filled an imaginary tabletop with diverse objects—among them a Hanuman, a memory of one of his temple expeditions. The still-life is unusual because part of it is landscape: The palms and boats in the background are reminiscent of Mangalore, where Raobail grew up.
