His work avoided spectacle and judgement, instead offering a rare and humanising view of lives often pushed to the margins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlongside his portraits, Hussain also painted landscapes and still lifes, bringing to each subject a strong command of form, atmosphere, and emotional presence. His legacy remains significant within Pakistani art as an artist who transformed lived experience into enduring images of beauty, pain, resilience, and truth.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eIqbal Hussain passed away in \u003cstrong data-start=\"1137\" data-end=\"1153\"\u003eJanuary 2026\u003c\/strong\u003e at the age of 75.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"untitled-by-iqbal-hussain","title":"Untitled by Iqbal Hussain","description":"","brand":"Arfiras Art Gallery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52552134394037,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1008\/1511\/0325\/files\/PHOTO-2026-05-16-20-52-56.jpg?v=1779633594"},{"product_id":"untitled-by-iqbal-hussain-1","title":"Untitled by Iqbal Hussain","description":"","brand":"Arfiras Art Gallery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52552134656181,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1008\/1511\/0325\/files\/PHOTO-2026-05-16-20-52-28.jpg?v=1779633921"},{"product_id":"untitled-by-iqbal-hussain-2","title":"Untitled by Iqbal Hussain","description":"","brand":"Arfiras Art Gallery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52552134688949,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1008\/1511\/0325\/files\/PHOTO-2026-05-16-20-52-09.jpg?v=1779633976"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1008\/1511\/0325\/collections\/ChatGPT_Image_Jun_11_2026_08_27_56_PM.png?v=1781191699","url":"https:\/\/arfiras.com\/collections\/iqbal-hussain.oembed","provider":"Arfiras Art Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
