The waterfront stacked up the hillside in ochre, rose and pale green, with cypresses punctuating it and wooden boats moored along the front. Sandhya Kaushik keeps the buildings as flat knife-laid planes with no drawn windows, and puts the mountains across the lake in one thin cool pass so the town stays forward.

Warm, European and easy to live with — the piece in the international group that sits closest to her Indian work in palette.
