This postcard sketch shows a woman carrying a basket on her back, rendered in thick and dark smudging of the pencil. Dinkar Kowshik in his essay 'Drawings and Sketches of Nandalal' in the book, 'Nandalal Bose- A collection of Essays' writes, "Much of his (Nandalal's) strength and sensitive wealth finds expression in the spontaneity of his sketches. They are a veritable treasure of shrewd observation, powerful calligraphy, psychological insight, rich sallies of humour and emphatic portrayal of the flora and fauna."
