    Sketch from Sketch Book No. 8 10586 Nandalal Bose Coloured pencil on paper

×
Nandalal has here rendered a floral motif in frottage - the technique of rubbing pencil on paper placed over a textured surface to get an impression of the pattern below. The sketch portrays Nandalal's impulse to imitate the motif in its original form to enrich his knowledge of design and ornamental work.
