    A Sketch from Album No. 26 7544 Nandalal Bose Pencil on postcard

×
The postcard shows flower inspired motifs with different linear patterns in simple designs. The markings show the colours red, black and yellow to be filled within the motifs. This design was probably created for use in an 'alpona', a decorative design used on floors during festivals and auspicious occasions in Bengal.
