    A Sketch from Album No.29 7618 Nandalal Bose Pencil and watercolour 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 watercolour drawing, the fluid handling of the lines and their delineation in the calligraphic style has resulted in the realistic representation of the fish.
