Expecting the beloved 5050 Nandalal Bose Tempera on paper 58.8 x 63 cm

"""""""Haripura posters by Nandalal capture moments of everyday Indian village life and culture. In this poster, he has depicted a sensuous figure of a woman sitting and holding a flower waiting for her beloved. The figure is filled with expression of her mood and character, executed with vibrant earthy colours and spontaneous, energetic contouring lines aptly limn the figure with the artist's personal sensibilities toward Indian folk arts."""""""
