    A Sketch from Album No. 44 8102 Nandalal Bose Pencil on postcard

×
Nandalal's exploration of the different ways of delineating a line allowed him to experiment in the representation of lines in its varying forms adding rhythm, vigour and life to the forms of nature. In this particular drawing, he studies in detail the contours of a flower 'Aparajita', rendered in soft brisk pencil strokes. He carefully studies the rhythm and delicacy in the shape and contours of the organic form.
