Contemporary art in Pakistan was a renaissance and there were many paintings depicting villages filled with devotion.

For A Song is a gorgeous piece that celebrates music, which was another key theme in Chughtai’s work.

The browns, maroons and whites are soft on the eyes.

The blurry hue gives this painting a dream-like feel.

The curve of the bodies and straight-edged lines of the building help create a dramatic masterpiece
