Answers
Explanation:
Bagchi, Annada Prasad (1849-1905) portrait painter and a master of oil paintings of late 19th and early 20th century Bengal. Born in village Shikharbali under the district of 24-Parganas, Annada Prasad Bagchi received his early education at the Assembly's Institution at Calcutta. He got his early training in art at a copperplate-engraving workshop at Jorasanko where he received instructions from Nilmoni Mukherjee. Bagchi, enrolled at the Government Art School in 1865, received training from HH Locke in woodcarving, engraving, lithography, and oil painting. Financial pressures compelled Bagchi to work at a copper-engraving workshop.
Among his various activities during his student life mention may be made of the illustrations he made for the books of rajendralal mitra. During 1868-69 he travelled extensively in Orissa with Rajendralal Mitra and others and made illustrations of ancient monuments and antiquities. Annada Prasad drew majority of the illustrations of the two volumes of Rajendralal Mitra's Antiquities of Orissa. In 1877 Bagchi again accompanied Rajendralal Mitra to Bodh Gaya and made the illustrations for the latter's research on Bodh Gaya.
Bagchi was appointed an instructor at the Government Art School, of which he later became the principal teacher (1880). This employment gave him the required financial security. His career is a typical example of a success story of the new group of Bengali artists, attempting to situate themselves in a career as independent portrait painters, draughtsman, engravers and drawing masters in a commercialised market situation. The art market was then sharply divided between the indigenous village and popular artists and craftsmen on the one hand and the government sponsored art school educated 'Academic' genre of painters on the other. The third group comprised of the new Indian School propounded by abanindranath tagore and E Havell that went back to ancient Indian painting tradition for its inspiration and themes, while employing modern westernised techniques of artistic creation. Annada Prasad and some of his contemporaries succeeded in introducing within these scheme artistic ventures centred on the new techniques such as metal engraving, lithography, and chrome-lithography providing visual material to a wider mass clientele.
