Ear Cleaner 4865 Nandalal Bose Tempera on paper 56.3 x 63.3 cm

"""""""Haripura posters by Nandalal capture moments of everyday Indian village life and culture. This particular poster shows his acute observation of the surroundings in which he has depicted a man engaged in cleaning ear of a woman sitting on a stool. The illustration has been articulated with the earthy colour palette and spontaneous and energetic graphic lines which aptly limn the figure with the artist's personal sensibilities."""""""
