    A Sketch from Album No. 76 8954 Nandalal Bose Pen and ink and pencil on postcard

×
Nandalal preferred drawing from life, often sketching outdoors with the subject being life, nature studies, landscapes, figure drawings and animals. The above monochrome sketch by the artist depicts a woman standing gracefully under a tree. Nandalal has accentuated the rhythm of the image by using bold monochromatic brush strokes. The fluid handling of the lines and their strong delineation in the calligraphic style adds vigour and grace to the woman's stance.
