Hi guys,
Hope you all are doing good. I am doing good too. Today is the birthday of the legend Rabindranath Tagore.
A Bengali polymath who reshaped Bengali Literature and Music as well as Indian Art with Contextual Modernism.
He became the first non European to win the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1913. His compositions were chosen by two nations as it's National Anthem. India's Jana Gana Mana and Bangladesh's Amar Shonar Bangla.
At the age of 60, he learnt drawing and painting. His work got published in many workshops and galleries. He opened a school for children in India with his Nobel Prize money.
His legacy leaves behind in India for many more years to come. Have a good day. Take care!!!
