Alfred Hallett
Painting Gallery
|
Alfred Hallett: born 1914 in England, he
exhibited twice at the Royal Academy, London (1937 and 1938) before
migrating to British India in 1940 where he managed a cloth mill in
Dhariwal, Punjab and from where he was able to buy the property on
Dharamkot to pursue his love of painting full-time. Known primarily as
a figure painter, his prolific output of portraits, landscapes and
imaginative religious and abstract oil paintings can be seen today
from Amritsar to New Delhi as well as on walls in Southern England. A
confirmed bachelor all his life, he died in his beloved Dharamkot (Mcleodganj
H. P.) studio in 1986, aged 72.
