His early exposure to the fundamentals of drawing came through a wandering ascetic who ignited his artistic spark. Recognizing his passion for painting, Vijayvargiya's father encouraged him to pursue formal education at the Maharaja School of Arts and Crafts. Here, he had the privilege of being mentored by the renowned Bengal revivalist, Shailendranath De.At the age of 17, Ramgopal Vijayvargiya held his inaugural solo exhibition at the Fine Arts and Crafts Society in Kolkata. His exceptional talent led to his rapid progression, allowing him to complete his five-year course within just eight months, gaining him direct promotion to the final year.Subsequently, he briefly worked as a drawing teacher but soon realized it wasn't his calling. By the time he turned 30, Ramgopal had firmly established his name in the art realm, with nearly a thousand of his paintings already finding homes. Many of his creations drew inspiration from the literary works of poets and writers such as Kalidas and Omar Khayyam.Ramgopal's artistic journey, which commenced in 1929, spanned thousands of works, and over 250 of these pieces are cherished in collections worldwide. Notably, one of his paintings on the theme of Geet Govind was acquired by Tsutomu Ueda's gallery in Tokyo.Beyond his visual artistry, Vijayvargiya was also a prolific writer, having published three anthologies of poems, a collection of short stories, and six books on art. His contributions to both the visual and literary arts continue to resonate with enthusiasts and collectors alike.
