    Sketch from Sketch Book No.24 11142 Nandalal Bose Pencil on paper

×
Nandalal had a strong affinity for sketching, his subjects being the surrounding environs, people in their everyday life or anything that he found fascinating. The above sketch by the artist, is a perceptible representation of a sculpture of a man with a sword and a shield, from Khandgiri caves as suggested in the inscription. The composition is rendered with thick, fluid yet firm pencil strokes articulating the contours of the form and suggesting the demeanour of the subject.
