जब भी किसी ने ख़ुद को सदा दी सन्नाटों में आग लगा दी

मिट्टी उस की पानी उस का जैसी चाही शक्ल बना दी

छोटा लगता था अफ़साना मैं ने तेरी बात बढ़ा दी

जब भी सोचा उस का चेहरा अपनी ही तस्वीर बना दी

तुझ को तुझ में ढूँड के हम ने दुनिया तेरी शान बढ़ा दी

Woman Before a Mirror

Paired Painting

Woman Before a Mirror

In this evocative masterpiece, Hemendranath Mazumdar captures a moment of profound intimacy and quiet introspection. The artist was a virtuoso of the human form, celebrated for his ability to render the delicate texture of skin and the soft drape of fabric with an almost ethereal quality. Here, the subject stands in a state of vulnerable reflection, caught in the soft luminescence that emanates from an unseen source. Mazumdar does not merely paint a woman, he paints a mood: he invites the viewer into a private sanctuary where time seems to stand still, allowing us to witness a brief, beautiful instance of self awareness and grace.
