    THE WAVES 6131 Nandalal Bose Watercolour on Sumi paper

×
This painting belongs to a series of monochromatic ink and watercolour paintings inspired by the Sumi-e Japanese technique the artist employed in the last phase of his life. The subject here being 'The Waves' executed from his memory and experiences. These compositions were stripped to the bare minimum where only a few strokes of ink were employed to create natural forms in an effortless approach. This painting was purchased from the collection of Shri Biswaroop Bose and Smt. Nivedita Bose, children of Nandalal Bose.
