    Sketch from Drawing Book No. 19 9823 Nandalal Bose Watercolour on Sumi paper

×
Nandalal understood the importance of studying and perfecting the basic form. He observed flowers, trees, animals, landscapes and architecture, taking notes on the visual panorama and reproduced them on paper. In this particular sketch, Nandalal has depicted tall palm trees with dogs wandering below them, in quick, loose strokes of watercolour.
