    Sketch from Sketch Book No.24 11190 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. In the above pencil sketch, Nandalal has depicted a stout human figure in ready to attack posture. The composition is rendered with stark, linear pencil strokes delineating the basic contours and suggesting the demeanour of the subject.
