    A Sketch from Album No. 81 9052 Nandalal Bose Pencil, pen & ink on paper

×
Nandalal had a strong affinity for sketching, his subjects being the surrounding environs, people in their everyday life or anything that he found fascinating. This pen and ink sketch is a quick rendition of a group of people walking, swiftly executed in loose brush strokes, suggesting the modelling of the form. The thick strokes of ink in rhythmic style lend vigour and grace to the serene landscape.
