    Mother and Child (A sketch from Album No. 76) 4936 Nandalal Bose Pen & Ink on postcard

×
Nandalal had a strong affinity for sketching, his subjects being the surrounding environs, people in their everyday life or anything that he found fascinating. In this sketch, he has depicted a mother embracing a child in her arms. This has been executed in fluid, linear strokes of ink, delineating the form of the figure and highlighting its facial feature.
