Government Press, Mysore

Cheek by Jowl

Line and Wash, A4, Steadtler Pigment Liner, 0.2, Camlin Watercolours on cartridge paper

This is a line and wash work of the Government Press, in Saraswathipuram, Mysore. This is a very interesting group of buildings. They seem to have been built at various times and wherever there was space. You can see different technologies - Mangalore tile roof, Azbestos sheet roof, RCC roof and so on. The foundation level is below street level and hence they appear as you see them here. There is lot of greenery, a temple and so on in the premises. It is visually very interesting. I hope I have been able to convey some of it here.
