Jamini Roy was born on 11 April 1887 into a moderately prosperous Kayastha family of landowners in Beliatore village of the Bankura district, West Bengal. He was raised in an average middle-class, art-loving household which ultimately influenced his future decisions. Roy began his career as a commissioned portrait painter. Somewhat abruptly in the early 1920s, he gave up commissioned portrait painting in an effort to discover his own.
Roy is also described as an art machine because he produced 20,000 paintings in his lifetime which is about 10 paintings daily but made sure his artistic aims remained the same. He always targeted the ordinary middle class as the upholder of art however he was thronged by the rich. Keeping his respect for the middle class reflected in his critical views; he believed that ordinary people were more important than governments because they were the voice of his art.
His paintings were put on exhibition for the first time in the British India Street of Calcutta (Kolkata) in 1938. During the 1940s, his popularity touched new highs, with the Bengali middle class and the European community becoming his main clientele. In 1946, his work was exhibited in London and in 1953, in New York.
He was awarded the Padma Bhushan in 1954. His work has been exhibited extensively in international exhibitions and can be found in many private and public collections such as the Victoria and Albert Museum, London. He spent most of his life living and working in Calcutta.
