    Sketch Book No.1 10026 Nandalal Bose Watercolour on paper

×
Nandalal has, in this monochromatic painting, emphasised the tones of the colour for precise and recognizable variations. In this tenth sketch of a series of eleven sketches of roosters and hens in the album, he has sketched a hen, rendered in swift, confident strokes of watercolour employing the dry brush technique to lend texture to the depiction.
