    From the foreword: "Debdas Chakraborty is an eminent painter after modern trend in Bangladesh. For at least 45 years his works have been shown at solo and group exhibitions at home and abroad where he has won awards and attracted the admiration of viewers. He is specially skilled in drawing and quite facile in oil painting and watercolour. He has successfully produced a whole range of works -- from the realistic to the abstract. Man and nature have revealed themselves with all their diversities, riches and destructive capacities. There is no end of his fascination for his homeland as well as for women; he has unbounded faith in humanism and universalism, with an enviable ease he has brought together his sensory perceptions and his mind, his pen and ink, and his colours and paint brushes."
