Album No. - 4 (Landscapes) 7121 Nandalal Bose Pencil 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 the above sketch the artist has depicted boats aligned at a sea shore against the backdrop of architectural structures. The illustration is swiftly rendered with linear, fluid yet firm coloured pencil strokes delineating the forms and invigorating vigour in the composition.
