    A Sketch from Album No. 20 7427 Nandalal Bose Pencil on postcard

×
Nandalal, in his sketches, experimented with the representation of lines to attain texture and add vigour and life to the form of his figures. This postcard sketch by Nandalal is a quick rendition of a man in standing posture along the door, swiftly executed in long, loose pencil strokes that suggest the modelling of the form and highlight the light and depth in the composition.
