Nandalal had a strong affinity for sketching, his subjects being the surrounding environs, people in their everyday life or anything that he found fascinating. In this sketch, Nandalal depicts lord Ganesh, with detail ornamental representation of the Goddess. He employs swift, smudged pencil strokes that define its characteristic features and add grace to the form.
