It is also the birthday of noted painter Maqbool Fida Husain today. Search engine giant Google dedicated a doodle to celebrate the birth century of one of Husain.
Google doodle shows 'Picasso of India' holding a paintbrush in the form of an abstract art.
"This was partly due to his modernist, slightly cubist paintings and to the sheer volume of work he produced. His middle name, 'Fida' can be translated as 'obsessed' or 'devoted' which could also describe his approach to making art." Google said.
M.F. Husain died in London on June 9, 2011.
