Early life

The Deuskar family was originally from Dewas, Madhya Pradesh, but later settled in Ahmednagar. For three generations, the Deuskar family had a background in art. His grandfather Vamana and his father were sculptors. Gopal's father was an art teacher in the Mission High School. His great uncle Ramakrishna Deuskar was a famous painter of the 20th century. Along with the Nabab, he was instrumental in establishing the Salarjung Museum in Hyderabad and became the first curator of the museum. Gopal's mother and father died of flu when he was two years old. He and his elder sister, Shanta, were looked after by relatives until 1921. Later they stayed with their uncle Ramakrishna Deuskar in Hyderabad for six years. He joined the Sir JJ School of Art in Mumbai in 1927. He initially lived in Khetwadi as a member of Lalit Kaladarsha, a theatre troupe.^[2]
