Sonya Rhie Quintanilla in the book, 'Rhythms of India: The Art of Nandalal Bose' refers to Nandalal's continued interest in making drawings and sketches. She says, 'Throughout his life Nandalal created many thousands of drawings using different linear styles ad media, as though each style and technique were a dialect of the same language and each a way to reach the underlying unity of creation. According to the inscription, the painting is made in the year 1934, and His exploration of the different ways of delineating a line allowed him to experiment in representation of lines in its varying forms adding rhythm, vigour and life to the form of the figures. The above sketch is a seascape or a river front that the artist has depicted.
