    Nandalal Bose

    A Sketch from Album No. 65 8708 Nandalal Bose Ink on postcard

×
In this postcard sketch, Nandalal has depicted a tribal woman sitting on a 'Charpai' (traditional four-legged furniture in India) feeding her child. He renders the figure in dark outlines and light washes of colour that define the bold contours of the robust female body and lend depth and volume to the drawing.
