    Sketch from Drawing Book No. 23 9878 Nandalal Bose Charcoal & pencil on paper

×
Nandalal's exploration of the different ways of delineating a line allowed him to experiment with its varying forms adding rhythm, vigour and life to his sketches. In this postcard sketch, he has rendered a scene of the village Ushagram, near Santiniketan. He has employed the combined tonal variations of pencil and textural properties of charcoal to suggest the light and depth in the composition.
