    Sketch Book No. 7 10511 Nandalal Bose Pencil on paper

×
Nandalal preferred drawing from life, often sketching outdoors with the subject being life, nature studies, landscapes, figure drawings and animals. In the above sketch, the artist depicts a group of peahens in the forest, rendered with linear, firm yet fluid pencil strokes, articulating the contours of the forms and adding vigour to the composition.
