Rabin Mondal born as Rabindra Nath Mondal (born 1929), is a painter from Kolkata, West Bengal. Rabin Mondal is an Indian artist who was a founding member of the Calcutta Painters. He lived and worked in relative obscurity until retrospective exhibitions of his work in Kolkata, New Delhi and Bombay brought him to India’s national attention in 2005.〔(The Great Indian Art Boom, Indian Art in 2005, Matters of Art )〕 ==Early life and family history==
Mondal was born in Howrah, an overcrowded urban extension of Calcutta. His family had prospered in business in the late 19th century. Rajendra Narayan Mondal (1792 to 1860), Dewan of Narayanganj in Bengal was an ancestor, and one of his sons Rajendranarayan received the title of ''Raja''. The narrow lane where Rabin’s paternal home stands was named after his grandfather Fakirdas Mondal. But the pressures of an extended Bengali household forced the young Rabin to live with not only his brothers and sisters, but also his aunts, uncles, great aunts and uncles, and also his cousins. Though the Mondal family had a highly educated and upper-middle-class background, Howrah was known for its overcrowded slums and impoverished migrant workers who toiled in various grimy industries. It was an environment that caused the young Rabin to take note of the realities of life and its struggles.〔''After the Fall, The Life and Times of Rabin Mondal'', Santo Datta, Delhi Art Gallery, 2005, ISBN 81-902104-2-4〕 Like many Indian artists of his generation, Rabin was deeply affected by the Bengal famine of 1943, the struggle for India's independence, and the subsequent partition of his native Bengal.〔''Old Images, New Ideas'', Gayatri Sinha, The Hindu, September 30, 2005〕
