Painting believed to be only one Mahatma Gandhi sat for going under hammer at Bonhams
TOI correspondent from London : An oil portrait believed to be the only painting Mahatma Gandhi ever sat for is going under the hammer at Bonhams in July with an estimate of £50,000-£70,000 (Rs 58 lakh to Rs 81 lakh. ) It is the first time this portrait has ever been sold at auction as it remained in British artist Clare Leighton's collection until her death in 1989, after which it was passed down through her family. Leighton, reputed for her wooden engravings, was introduced to Gandhi when he visited London in 1931 to attend the Second Round Table Conference. At the time, she was in a relationship with political journalist Henry Noel Brailsford, who was a passionate supporter of Indian Independence. He had travelled to India in 1930 where he met key Independence figures. Afterwards he published the book 'Rebel India', met Gandhi in London in 1931 and introduced Leighton to him. She became one of very few artists admitted to his office and was given the opportunity to sit with him to sketch and paint him in 1931. In Nov 1931 Leighton showcased her portraits at the Albany Galleries in London. The following month, Gandhi's personal secretary, Mahadev Desai, wrote a letter to Leighton, a copy of which is attached to the backing board, which reads: 'It was such a pleasure to have had you here for many mornings doing Mr Gandhi's portrait.' According to the artist's family, the portrait was on public display in 1974 when it was allegedly attacked with a knife by a Hindu right-wing activist. The catalogue entry states: 'We have found no documentation to corroborate this, but the painting shows signs of restoration to what appears to be repaired tears in several places. A label attached to the backing board confirms the painting was restored in 1974 by the Lyman Allyn Museum Conservation Laboratory. ' 'There is nothing comparable to this painting in existence as it was painted in his lifetime and was a painting that he sat for on multiple occasions,' Rhyanon Demery, head of sale, told TOI. The auction takes place from 7 to 15 July.

CM targets planting 10cr saplings this yr to boost forest cover
Mumbai: Chief minister Devendra Fadnavis on Wednesday set a target of planting 10 crore saplings in the current year to enhance the forest cover across the state. "We will have to launch a people's tree plantation movement to achieve the target of green Maharashtra in a time-bound period. Next year too, we will plant an equal number of saplings," Fadnavis said. He held a marathon meeting with senior bureaucrats, all divisional commissioners and collectors, on drafting a strategy for enhancing the forest cover. Additional chief secretary (forest) Milind Mhaiskar made an impressive presentation on the measures to be taken for enhancing forest cover in a time-bound period. While the current forest cover is 21.25%, additional 240 crore saplings will have to be planted to achieve the target of 33% forest cover. According to a senior bureaucrat, every department has been given a specific target, which will be completed before the ensuing monsoon. "We have set a target of 11 crore saplings. In view of our past experience, it should not be difficult to achieve the target," he said. The bureaucrat said earlier, it was found that acute shortage of labour, shortage of funds — from 2017-18 labour bills worth Rs 30 crore — have not been paid. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Promoções imperdíveis de voos baratos Voos | Anúncios de Pesquisa Saiba Mais Undo In several villages, resolutions have not been passed in the gram sabha. Labour from outside of the tehsil do not report for work. There is a delay on the part of the central government to release daily wages. Labours are reluctant to record attendance two times every day and above all, labours prefer non-governmental jobs. All of this has hit the tree plantation drive. The forest department has proposed massive tree plantations on both sides of the national highways and roads being constructed by state road development corporation. "If we have to achieve the target of 33% forest cover, then tree plantation should become a movement. For the 33% target, we will have to enhance our speed," said Fadnavis.
