The documental dimension of Trindade’s portraits of simple folk of the various communities of the Subcontinent is absolutely remarkable. Apart from the numerous oils, his watercolour depictions show the artist’s mastery over this media as well as strong understanding of the psychological profile of his sitters.The Man with Red Cap and Shawl illustrates the artist’s recurrent curiosity with the common folk. Possibly belonging to the Muslim community, the man’s well-looked after attire, with contracting red and ecru colours, evokes respect and a certain hold, contrasting with his suntanned skin suggestive of his working-class status. Trindade is known for a strong understanding of the psychological profile of his subjects. A preference for a side portrait might indicate a concern with the intrusiveness of his request for a portrait. The bright warm palette and quick brushstroke give life to an otherwise very quiet personality.
