    A Sketch from Album No. - 56 8476 Nandalal Bose Watercolour on postcard

×
Nandalal understood the significance of the use of lines and techniques in the practice of art. He explored a wide range of artistic traditions not only of India but also those of other nations. The above watercolour illustration by Nandalal is a representation of a mountainscape executed by harmoniously diluting the tones of the colours with sweeping brush strokes, a technique the artist acquired from the arts of the Far East.
