    Sketch Book No. 5 10392 Nandalal Bose Pencil on paper

×
Nandalal exploration of different ways of delineating a line allowed him to experiment in the representation of lines in its varying forms adding rhythm, vigour and life to the form of the figures. In this sketch, the artist depicts a man who is bending in a manner to greet. The fluid handling of the lines and the curvilinear strokes suggest the modelling of the body and the facial features rendered in an impressionistic manner.
