Volume No. 85(c) : Picture Post Card 11397 Nandalal Bose Pen & Ink on postcard

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 an old man came from the Pakistan and selling goods, as mentioned in the inscription. This has been executed in fine, short strokes of ink delineating the figure and resulting in the detail rendition of the subject.
