POSTER: SOBHA SINGH (DATES UNKNOWN) NORTH-WEST FRONTIER / SEE INDIA. 38x25 inches. Bolton Fine Art, Bombay.
SOBHA SINGH (DATES UNKNOWN) NORTH-WEST FRONTIER / SEE INDIA.
38 5/8x25 1/2 inches. Bolton Fine Art, Bombay.
Condition B+: restored loss in lower left margin; overpainting along repaired tears in margins.
A part of India until 1947, the North-West Frontier Province is now a part of Pakistan. Depicted here is a pre-partition scene of the Khyber Pass, which connects the region with Afghanistan. The poster, like a Rudyard Kipling story, highlights both the geological wonders of the region as well as the exotic, tribal nature of the local cultures. While the mountainous region between India and Pakistan has taken on a whole new geo-political significance in today's world, for centuries the region has been both an active trading route and a strategic gateway for invading armies.
