Before Jamini Roy evolved his individualistic idiom of simplified forms, he created artworks that were inspired by child art. In the NGMA collection, this sketch of a hybrid bird- man resembles child art (Accession 3046). There is also a finished drawing titled Icarus (Accession No.-3076), the character in Greek mythology who wanted to construct wings so that he can fly.
