Nandalal had a strong affinity for sketching, his subjects being the surrounding environs, people in their everyday life or anything that he found fascinating. In this sketch, he has depicted a woman pounding rice flakes, as mentioned in the inscription. This sketch has been executed in fluid, bold ink strokes, suggesting the contours of the form. He has also studied the form of a pestle, rendered in fine lines.
