    Album No. -11 (A Portrait Study) 7225 Nandalal Bose Pencil on postcard

×
In this postcard, Nandalal has rendered a portrait of a police inspector in the train as the inscription suggests. The sketch has been swiftly executed in dark, loose, coarse pencil strokes that suggest the depth and light in the composition. In a few, effortless lines, he has depicted the characteristic facial features and demeanour of the subject.
