    A Sketch from Album No. 75 8924 Nandalal Bose Pen & Ink on postcard

×
Nandalal's small sketches vastly vary in detailing, some drawn quickly with just a few lines, others executed with more elaborate characteristics from an analytical perspective. In the sketch on the left the artist has rendered a woman in movement, holding a basket in her right hand and in the sketch on the right depicts an old man carrying a child on his shoulders while walking with the help of a stick. The compositions are rendered with linear, fluid ink strokes articulating the facial features and basic contours of the forms and suggesting their demeanour.
