    Album No. -8 (A Landscape) 7180 Nandalal Bose Pencil on postcard

×
Nandalal had a firm belief that for the creation of art an intimate understanding of nature and its way is imperative. He made instantaneous visual records of anything amusing happening in his surroundings, the subjects being life, nature studies, landscapes, figure drawings, animals. In this postcard sketch, Nandalal has depicted a landscape in dark smudged pencil strokes to bring out the subject from the background without demarcating any lines.
