AN AGE OF QUICK LEARNING, TODAY’S SCHOLARS ARROGANCE,
LEADS TO SELF DELUSIONMENT OF THEIR IGNORAMUS NATURE,
CONCLUSIONS WITHOUT ACCESS TO ARCHIVES, ORIGINAL WORKS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It all started in 1975 with the death of M.A. Rahman Chughtai. We realized those who knew the artist Chughai first hand were gone. Few were left, and made us realize the importance of creating a new batch of scholars. Students and scholars have come from all over the world to study here and we have helped them. Really fine people. But there are those who became arrogant with what we taught them.  The extent was that they started to mislead the world with the scanty things they knew. Humility is the first sign of greatness. With knowledge we gave them free, they started making money out of the same. No harm done on the right track. But misleading created problems. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Few have recorded the last phase of the artist. Certainly he was fine by 1972 and even 1973. But 1973 and 1974 created problems. His illness led to tremor in his hands and this is reflected not only in his signatures but in the works themselves. To hide the tremor he purposefully made his elegant line thicker so that the tremor could not be noticed. We list some things for information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dust Covers of books<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In July 1973 Chughtai made a dust cover for the poetry of Sarmad Mazhari. That reflects that he was fine till July 1973. No stopping his creativity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some works of last phase<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note the works Mother and Child, Noora the Gambler, the Victor and it is clear that by this time things were fine. In the work Mother and Child we notice the tremor. This was possibly his last work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Signatures Urdu<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Compare signatures of various periods. People cannot even recognize the signatures of the last phase and many can mistake them by being not his. But they are very well his own. So keep the inquisitiveness alive. Ask us if you don’t know. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
