For nearly a century, Mario Miranda has remained one of India’s most beloved visual storytellers — a quiet observer of people, places, rituals, humour, vanity, tenderness, and the passing theatre of everyday life.
From the sleepy lanes of Loutolim to the restless pulse of Bombay, from crowded cafés to village processions, from newspaper margins to galleries across the world, Mario’s eye missed nothing.
As we journey towards 2nd May 2026 — 100 years of Mario, we invite you to travel with us through the life and world of the man behind the unmistakable line.
Over the next few weeks, we will unfold his story chronologically — from birth to legacy — tracing the people he loved, the cities that shaped him, the characters he immortalised, and the extraordinary body of work he left behind.
This is not merely the story of an artist. It is history told through his fabulous illustrations.
Welcome to 100 Years of Mario.
The journey begins now!
