Nandalal preferred drawing from life, often sketching outdoors with the subject being life, nature studies, landscapes, figure drawings, animals and birds or anything that he found fascinating. In his pencil sketches, he has experimented with the use of lines to add texture, vigour and life to his sketches. This sketch is a rendition of a woman sitting and decorating with the flower as suggested in the inscription. The fine, fluid lines have been delineated in the calligraphic style resulting in a realistic representation of the female form.
