    A Sketch from Album No. 94 9380 Nandalal Bose Pen & Ink on postcard

×
Nandalal preferred drawing from life, often sketching outdoors with the subject being life, nature studies, landscapes, figure drawings, animals and birds or anything that he found fascinating. In his sketches he has experimented with the use of lines to add texture, vigour and life to his sketches. This sketch is a rendition of a woman walking on the stairs, carrying a child on her back tied with a cloth and holding a basket in her other hand, rendered in fine, brisk strokes of ink that accentuate the rhythm and movement in the form.
