    A Sketch from Album No. 46 8222 Nandalal Bose Pencil on postcard

×
Nandalal had a strong affinity for sketching, his subjects being the surrounding environs, nature, landscapes, figure drawings and animals. Nandalal in this sketch depicts a profile view of a rooster's head, carefully rendered in deep, dark outlines, defining its characteristic features. Swift, short strokes have been used to depict the depth to the form.
