A LARGE PAINTING DEPICTING SIKH MEN GATHERING FOR BASANT PANCHMI, PUNJAB, INDIA, MID-19TH CENTURY gouache on paper, gold flecked red border, the ten men flanking a guru, all dressed in yellow seated on a terrace, fields of yellow and orange flowers in the background 41.5 x 26.5cm For another depiction of the same subject, see Christie's London, 16 October 2011, lot 418. Basant Panchmi marks the start of the forty day transition to Spring in the Indian Subcontinent, which culminate in the riotous holi celebrations. Although it is originally a Hindu festival it is celebrated to greater or lesser extent and in various differing ways by all the major religious communities. The yellow colour is particularly associated with Sikh celebrations and represents the mustard flower which blossoms in Punjab at that time of year.
