×
In this sketch Nandalal renders a line drawing of a deer, quickly executed in swift, long strokes, sparing much detail. In his book 'On Art' the artist mentions, "To acquire right knowledge and perception one should study men and animals when they are on the move or are active: when one can note in action the how and wherefore of the body's muscles, tendons and joints."
