NCERT (2026-27): “Journey’s End Made by Abanindranath Tagore (1871–1951) in 1913, this painting is in watercolour. … In this painting, a collapsed camel is shown in red background of dusk and in that sense it personifies the end of a journey through the end of a day. … Abanindranath has also painted The Forest, Coming of Night, Mountain Traveller, Queen of the Forest and a series of 45 paintings based on The Arabian Nights.”
