Maqbool Fida Husain, 95, India’s Most-Famous Painter

“Dubbed the ‘Picasso of India,’ Husain’s work is a blend of cubism and classical Indian styles that fetches millions of dollars on international art markets. His depictions of naked Hindu goddesses enraged zealots who attacked his house, vandalized shows displaying his work and drove him to flee India. For years, galleries were too frightened of protests to display his work.”
